For sale I have a Beautiful Art Pottery Vase made by The Roseville Pottery Company of Zanesville, Ohio. The Pattern is "Water Lily" and it is in the ever Popular Blue background Glaze. The Vase Stands 7 1/8" tall and is 6" in diameter at its widest point which is the top handles outside mesaurement. The top opening is 2 3/4" inside diameter and 3 1/4" outside diameter.

I would call this shape a "Deco Jennie Bottle" Vase with 2 Applied Handles. The Leaves with Moss Green Glaze is simply Striking and realistic looking. The Vase displays a Water Lily Design that consist of a Large Embossed open Water Lily Flower on a watery Blue background of horizontal wavy ridges. The large Blossom is surrounded by Large Green Leaves and a Bud. This is one of Roseville's Most Popular Patterns and Glazes.

The piece is considered to be in excellent condition as there are no cracks, nicks, chips or dings. The piece is signed on the bottom in raised relief "Roseville U.S.A." and the mold number 75-7" also in raised relief. The previous collector put protective felt on the bottom as not to scratch the piece as well as the furniture it sat on. The Vase is extremely clean as you can see.

This piece was made in 1943 during World War II. Those of you who collect this pattern and want a nice example need to look no further. This is an excellent example in both form and Glaze combinations.
