This wonderful Poole shape
967 vase was made in the mid 1930’s and is decorated in the classic QB Comical
Bird pattern, an all-time Poole favourite designed by Truda Carter in about
1930
The white clay body dates
it no earlier than 1934, the factory backstamp on the base was the one in use
from 1924 to 1950 and the paintress mark is that of Clarice Heath (Drew) who
was with the pottery from 1929 to 1940
It is 7.75" (19.5cm)
high, 4.5” (11cm) diameter at the widest point and the rim is 3.5" (9cm)
diameter
There is a fine hairline
crack on the rim as shown in the pictures but it is barely noticeable on the
outside – it is otherwise in very good condition with no chips or restoration
and only a few signs of crazing which is normally more pronounced in pieces of
this age
A very nice piece in a
sought after pattern that would be far more valuable without the hairline, it will
make a fine addition to your collection or a lovely gift
