Not Skrdlovice.

Sorry, can't help further.

How tall is it?  what are the dimensions and how much does it weigh please?

The wavy bits down the sides - are they sort of 'pinched' together to make them if you see what I mean?

It weighs just shy of 2KG Approximately 11" tall and has a rim diameter of 3" and a base diameter of 5"
It has a polished pontil which is off-centre.
Yes it appears like it was made round and has been "pinched"
