For sale I have a nice piece of pottery made by the Roseville Pottery Company of Zanesville, Ohio. The pattern is "Zephyr Lily" and the shape is a Tall Double Handled Vase. The Vase is large as it measures 10 1/2" tall and is 5 1/2" in diameter outside handle measurement. The Base or Foot of the Vase measures 4" in diameter.

The Vase depicts tall lilies with slender stems and leaves in the background. The Flowers and Leaves are done in Raised Relief. The Background Glaze is blended from Moss Green To Sienna Brown. The Flowers are glazed in a Creamy Yellow Color and the leaves in a Sage Green. There are 2 Large Applied Handles that start at the Waist and are joined at the lower Neck of the vessel. This form is desirable and shows minimal signs of use. The inside is very clean!!

The Vase is considered to be in Excellent Condition as there are no cracks, or chips. There is a small nick on the bottom outside ring. This cannot be seen when displayed and it is insignificant. The piece is signed with the raised relief mark of Roseville U.S.A. 137-10". There is also a Letter H in Black Grease pencil which is more than likely the finishers mark.

This is a large piece of Zephyr Lily and are usually found with cracks and chips. They are large and got knocked over. I am Happy to report that this one DOES NOT have cracks or chips. This is somewhat a Rare form as it is Hard To Find. Purchase with Confidence as this would be an excellent addition to one's Art Pottery Collection especially that of Roseville Zephyr Lily.

This Vase was made, Circa 1946.
