For Auction I have a Beautiful piece of pottery made by the Roseville Pottery Company of Zanesville, Ohio. The shape is a Double Handled Vase and the pattern is "Foxglove". The Vase measures 5 1/4" tall and is 7 5/8" in diameter outside handle measurement. The opening of this lovely piece is 5 1/2" wide.

The Vase depicts gracefully executed stalks of Foxglove in High Relief against a soft Blue background. There are two stalks on the front of the Vase that are glazed in a Dusty Pink and Cream to Yellow colors. There are Leaf Sprays that are glazed in Mint to Teal Green. The backside of the Vase has one Foxglove Stalk that is also glazed in the Cream to Yellow Colors.

The Vase is considered to be in Excellent Condition as there are no cracks, chips, nicks or dings. The piece is so clean and crisp that I don't believe it was ever used. There are the few typical pin pops and a glaze miss that are common with this glaze. They do not detract from the Vases beauty. The piece is signed with the raised relief "Roseville U.S.A. 659-5". There are also the letters "N" and "D" in grease pencil which is most likely the finishers mark.

The Vase was made Circa 1942.
