Art Deco Beastie

Poole Pottery Art Deco Vase 213 TZ
Here's the vase I've been saving up for all year - well, since January anyway. It was painted by Ruth Paveley during the early 1930's in the TZ, or Leaping Stag pattern. The pattern itself was designed by Truda Carter, but it has a close similarity to patterns designed by John Adams (Truda Carters first husband), and is very reminiscent in pose to the springbok bookends that John Adams also designed.
