Antique Roseville matte green jardinaire. c: pre 1916. Fabulous arts & crafts jard with incised mark #456 which corresponds to the book. The book also indicates that the Roseville name would have been on a paper label which is long gone. This item is a darker, flatter color than the camera photo shows it. It is not aqua, although it looks a bit aqua in the picture, but when put next to an aqua planter, it is matte green but not a seaweed green. No chips or cracks and stands 7.75 tall x 8 wide at top rim. On one of the handles there are some ripples in the clay, (they are smooth with no change in texture); checked it with a black light and there is no evidence of any repairs; it is just a clay/glaze irregularity. Some rust/mineral deposits on interior bottom of jard and a couple of tiny white paint specks; just looks like someone was painting their ceiling and forgot to cover the jard, most of it has been removed now. A fantastic early Roseville for your Mission style/Arts & Crafts room! This jard is shown on pg. 33 of the 1990 book by S. Huxford. An identical vase was in the movie 'Inception'; it had a large plant in it in one of the arts & crafts kitchen scenes with Leonardo Decaprio. USA only due to size. Guaranteed authentic vintage Roseville Pottery!
