Day 22: (Part 1) Newtone Art Ware Vase – Shape 142
Photo Caption: Day 22: (Part 1) Today’s piece is the 4th and final example of the Bakewell’s shape 142 from the Newtone line and this one is a little special in more ways than one. Firstly and most obviously this piece is hand painted with a spray of flowers trailing down the front and back. Secondly it is signed by head paintresses at Bakewells Daisy Victoria Merton. Thirdly and most interesting to a pottery collecting nerd like me is the green paper label on the base. The label is interesting to me because it shows the factory design code for this flower design. Every glaze combination and hand painted design would have had it’s own code. I’ve only seen a handful of these labels but they are out there and I’d like to see more.
