Spherical vase, made by Empire Ware (England) in June 1929. Measures 12.5 cm high and about14.6 cm diameter (5 inches by 5.3/4 inches). Pattern is called Gondola, and the tiny words "Venice" and "A.C.Rowley" flank the scene of the boat man and building. Staffordshire earthenware body, with usual fine clean glaze crazing. Some minor wear marks, but very stylish and true to the period.
