Description
A pointed, upward-curving end gives this Flora-Ann planter its sculptural silhouette, balancing a low open bowl with a sharply rising triangular form. Glossy green glaze follows the asymmetric outline, shifting from teal highlights to deeper green around the opening and raised end.
The supplied identification places this piece in the South African Flora-Ann range, associated with Robertsham, Johannesburg. The supplied history gives a broad production period of 1951 to 1972, rather than establishing the exact year of this example. Its geometric form and green glaze are the defining details of the individual piece. The photographed underside shows the Flora Ann name and model number 714. Related forms and makers appear in the South African Ceramics collection.
