[QUOTE="Abegweit, post: 261043, member: 3988"]Hello Picked up this 11" tall vase recently, no artist signature and as the bottom is quite worn, no manufacturer mark on the bottom. It's a very pretty piece. The pictures do not really do it justice. Appears to be a moulded piece as there are two seams. I know painting blanks, plates, etc. was a common past time back when and have several such pieces, but I was wondering if people did larger objects like this vase. I can see painting on a plate or dish, but painting a 360 degree scene. Not sure if you can see it in the pictures, but you can see what appear to be sketch lines around the sheep in the vase and the painter coloured them in. Sketched or not I know I wouldn't have been able to do one sheep, let alone the whole scene. If anyone has or has seen similar unsigned / unmarked pieces, let me know your thoughts. - Thanks [ATTACH=full]81653[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]81654[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]81655[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]81656[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]81657[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
