- this unusually lovely antique English Art Pottery vase, or posy bowl, is truly compelling with it's unusual feet arranged in the organic form of entwined branches that evoke the naturalistic design themes of the Art Nouveau design movement.
- size: 4½"H
- age: c. late 1800s
- maker's mark(s): judging by the hallmarks on the bottom of the piece it appears to be made by William Kirby & Co. of the Sutherland Art Pottery Guild, Staffordshire, Fenton, England
- condition: EXCELLENT! ... no chips ... no cracks except for the overall "crazing" in the surface finish which is from age ... no discernible repair or restoration ... light amount of gold paint trim loss on rim ... clean.
