This Rookwood Red Aventurine-glazed vase is a very early and large design in this glaze line. Most Coromandel/Red Aventurine vessels date to c1930-1950, this one dates to 1926. Better yet, this form is a much larger vessel than most Coromandel, which are typically under 6" in height. Best of all, this is a vase form designed by Lorinda Epply. This vase stands 8.5" high by 7" in diameter, and 3.5" at the rim. It has a large stately form, with a wonderful design from tip to toe. Epply designed this form with carved-like lines in a very handsome repetitive line design at the neckline, and loose line shapes around the entire midline periphery. This design makes this Red Aventurine vase one of the largest and nicest designs in a line of typically plain vessels, whereby the glaze is the sole decoration. Epply was one of Rookwood's prized female artists, who spent her career at Rookwood Pottery from 1904-1948. She complemented this glaze line with this form! It is glazed in the Coromandel's Red Aventurine glaze, and this one is laced with flecks of golddust, simply a gorgeous vessel. This large pot is well marked with the Rookwood logo, and dated 1926 in Roman Numerals, shape number 7911, and it bears a partial paper label on the base, although not sure if it's original to the pot. This striking vessel is in original condition, no apologies. This unusual Coromandel/Red Aventurine-glazed vase makes an absolutely stunning presentation!
