A 13 inch (33cm) Royal Doulton tube-lined stoneware vase by Florrie Jones and Letitia Rosevear with panels of bold colours.
This impressively large vase was probably designed by Harry Simeon. Vases of this shape are illustrated on page 223 of Desmond Eyles' 'The Doulton Lambeth Wares'. The use of tube-lined panels filled with clear colours is characteristic of the first few years of the 20th century, and in total contrast with complex and highly detailed designs of the previous decades. The vase has the impressed Doulton Circle mark with Crown and Lion, the monogram of Florrie Jones, and the impressed 'r' of Letitia Rosevear.
The vase is in perfect condition with no cracks, chips, crazing or restoration.
