middle sized

This vase was in the same lot as the honey pot posted a couple of weeks ago.  It's painted in Sweet Pea (TY) patter by Hilda Trimm and can be dated by it's pink base to somewhere between 1934 and 37.  A lot of the sweet pea pattern pots I've seen come from this period.  The two simlar shaped vases in this pattern I already own are both made from red clay and date to a year or so earlier. http://www.robspoolepottery.co.uk/traditional_poole_sweet_pea_patterns.htm#122 TY   In terms of size this vase fits nicely in the middle of them.
