He grieved so at her death that the gods took pity on him and told him to lead her out of Hades- if he did so without looking back to check on her, they would be reunited. At the final steps, Orpheus turned around and she faded away. Dimensions: 5 x 3.5 inches Reference: Howard, David and John Ayers.

For Sale I have a not so commonly found piece of Art Pottery made by Roseville Pottery Company of Zanesville, Ohio. The Item is known as a Dresser Tray and in is done in Roseville's most Popular Blue background glaze. The Dresser Tray stands 1 5/8" tall and is 10 1/2" Diagonal measurement and is 6" wide. The Tray displays a pattern of Tall Stocks of Beige/White and Pink Foxgloves in high relief climbing through a cluster cluster of long Sage Green leaves. These are set amongst a Matte Blue Background. This is such a Lovely Pattern. The Tray is considered to be in excellent condition as there are no cracks, nicks, chips or dings. This is an extremely clean piece and shows minimal wear if any. The Tray is signed on the bottom with Roseville U.S.A. impressed mark. There is also the letter D and number 12 written in blue ink or glaze. These are more than likely the Artist and Finishers initial. This is a Hard to Find item in the Foxglove Pattern. I am quite confident that the buyer of this will cherish this for many years. Most of this pattern was marked with a raised relief signature mark. This one was one of the few molds in this pattern that were not. This is considered shape number 420-10" in the Foxglove Pattern Line by Roseville. I guarantee this to be an original piece of Roseville Pottery. This piece was made Circa 1942 during World War II.   « Less
