Is this Rookwood?

Hi,
I concur about it being Rookwood. I am not near my books to give you the exact age.

Picture of the mark is too small to count the flames, but if I read Lehner's mark examples correctly, the XXIX (29 in Roman numerals) should stand for 1929.

 

That is a Rookwood mark but something about this piece seems decidedly un-Rookwood-like. Their later work was different but I have not seen any Rookwood quite like this. I also can not find another example. A quick search of that model number brings up a vase.

There is one on worthpoint, from Rago, but that doesn't really count as a reference. They call it an owl jardiniere.

 

Link? I could not find it. Rago should be an authoritative source.

Interesting that they specifically call the vase Rookwood but not the owl......

O.K. The only reason I can think of to get a membership is to see sold prices. You can look at the listings for free and often find useful information. This thread is from Dec. 2018.

 

they say it free but it not and when your 2 weeks is up they don,t let you sign out of the 2 week free use of information, look up scams and fraud on website you will see there Name there.. I don,t want anyone to go through what i have to go through to get to my free 2 weeks to stop. Just helping

 

The two free weeks has often been tempting, so I appreciate the warning.
