Description:
For Sale I have a lovely Vase made by the Rookwood Pottery Company of Cincinnati, Ohio. It is a Great Arts and Crafts Shaped Vase. I would call the a "Double Buttressed Handle" Vase.The Vase is done in a Matt Mauve Glaze with a very light Green Over Spray on the top half. The Vase is accented with Buttress Handles on each side. They start at the top of the Vase and come down to the waist. The handles have very sharp angles to them and really give this piece all of its' character.
The Vase is in Excellent Condition as there are no cracks, chips, nicks or dings. The Piece is signed on the bottom with Rookwood's "Reverse RP" and "Sunburst Logo" along with the Roman Numerals XXIX for the year of manufacturing, 1929. It also has the mold number 63 impressed into the bottom.
This is an early shape created by Rookwood. Those of you who collect Arts and Crafts Shaped Pottery will surely welcome it into their collection. This is a great Arts and Crafts piece and will look great on any Stickley or Mission style Furniture.
