Item Details
Description
Kataro Shirayamadani (1865-1948) & Ruben Earl Menzel (1882-1971) for Rookwood Pottery
porcelain vase with lotus decoration, shape number 6185D, hand-thrown by Menzel and decorated by Shirayamadani
Cincinnati, Ohio, 1944
matte glazed ceramic
impressed factory marks, Menzel's swirl signature and Shirayamadani's incised initials
5 3/8"dia x 8 1/2"h

Catalog Note:
It is a mystery why Menzel signed this vase when he rarely did so in collaboration with another artist. Perhaps this was due to mutual respect between two of the older employees at Rookwood — a bonding moment.
Condition
Uncrazed. There are two 1/4" glaze skips among the flowers. No chips, cracks or repairs.
