Red Star

It looked a long way off, for a long time, but I've just been given my 1000th eBay feedback and earned a red star for it.  The next milestone is a safe distance away now at 5000 and if ever I get there someone really should pull the plug.
The vase above came from eBay a couple of weeks ago.  It was thrown in a gray semi-stoneware and dates to 1921-22.  It's shape number D333, CG pattern and has an unknown painters mark which looks like an overlapping M C.  Circles are quite unusual for Poole patterns and I suspect they are especially difficult to paint well.
