A brush pot is exactly what you might think it would be. A pot (well, actually a cylindrical, unlidded container) for holding Chinese and Japanese artists' and calligraphers' pens and brushes. Most often they are of made of either pottery, or bamboo. Dating to around the 16th century, they are still being made for use today.

This piece is just so beautiful to me since I am learning caligraphy
It's Chinese.
Yes, it does look Chinese... I'm learning about Asian Art and what a fantastic subject it is! Good luck with your studies.
