Forever Young

Despite some dramatic changes in style, I think, there is an remarkable consistency to the Poole colour palette from one decade to the next.  The vase above landed on my door step within day or so the Delphis vase in the previous post, and though they were painted four decades apart, the blue green colour and dashes of purple, for me, are clear evidence of their kinship.

This is a fair sized vase (8 1/2 inches tall) made from grey stoneware and painted in HR pattern it dates from about 1921 and has an unidentified decorators mark.
