Roseville Rozane Royal Vase - circa 1904 Fabulous piece of hard to find Rozane Light, also called Rozane Royal and Royal Lights. This new line of art ware was introduced by the Roseville Pottery Company, of Roseville, Ohio, in 1904. The "lights" shades were the pastel version of the darker Rozane line. The designs were executed by artists who did underglaze slip painting (decoration).

This vase measures just over 8 3/4" tall, and has very delicate flowers and leaves - perhaps a Dogwood? The main body in done in shades of gray and ivory. The bottom has an impressed mark which looks to be the number "7". There is one flaw on the backside, looks to be factory - shallow, and measures 1/4" x 1/8". There's a small area of underglaze (factory) impurities - that look like tiny bumps - in the bottom section of the ivory glaze. Displays beautifully - a great addition to an art pottery collection.

Vontury Lamp / Pot An outstandingly large piece of art pottery by Vontury. This was obviously originally designed to be used as a lamp base, as evidenced by the factory hole in the bottom. However, this shows beautifully as a pot and would look magnificent on a shelf or table. Measures just a tad under 15" tall and has its largest diameter at about 6 1/2". This is hand painted, under glaze, with stylized buds, flowers and leaves. Background is a high glaze nicely flowing pale brown. The flowers and foliage are executed in shades of greens, muted burgundy, and hues of blues. Although used nicely with art pottery and studio pottery collections, this actually has a porcelain body. Unsigned. there are 3 factory pinholes in the glaze, on the upper part of the neck. No cracks, chips or repairs.

F J. Von Tury was a Hungarian immigrant who founded his pottery in Metuchen, New Jersey in 1939. His works are sometimes signed "Vontury". (#T-1022)
