Art Deco Vase XP 438

This is one of my favourite Poole Patterns.  It's often referred to as Sweet Pea due to the blue seed pods or flowers, but what I like are the other abstract details - the little red devil's tail, the sun-burst flower and chevron arch.  Unfortunately I think lots of other people also like this pattern so so it doesn't seem to be listed on eBay all that often, and it usually gets highish prices.  This one is only 8.5 cm tall and its painted by Winifred Collett, probably in 1935.
