Information
A large and impressive Hancock and Sons Morris Ware C17-1 vase designed by George Cartlidge. Skilfully tube lined with stylised thistles in shades of deep violet and green/blue on a dark sea green ground. The swollen cylindrical art nouveau shape works beautifully with this lovely design. In excellent condition - no chips, cracks or restoration. Some mild age related crazing typical of these wares, really only noticed on close inspection and nothing to detract from this stunning vase. Rare to find, especially in such good order. Printed Morris Ware mark with Geo. Cartlidge signature and painted design reference C17-1. Height 30.25cm (11.9in)
