Description:
Rare find! Weller Malvern console bowl with flower
frog insert.
In All About Weller Ann Gilbert McDonald writes,
Combining the naturalistic with the grotesque, Malvern had
high relief red flower buds and green leaves on a textured,
multi-colored background. The factory offered baskets, vases…
in shades of green, magenta, yellow, and brown. The long
stemmed flowers wound around the vases and bowls in a
serpentine fashion.
These pieces are magenta and green. The bowl has the
stem and red flower both growing from a green base around the
bottom.
Bowl measures 9 x 4 inches.
Frog Measures about 5 x 2 inches.
Both pieces in Very Good to excellent condition. There is a
manufacturers flaw on the
base of the bowl. It is most visible from the bottom and you can
see it in the last photo between 5 and 6 oclock. No other chips,
cracks or other damage seen.
Circa 1920s
Made in Zanesville, Ohio
These pieces
are both UNMARKED.
