Description
Paired scroll handles frame the narrow neck of this burgundy Lucia Ware model 2101 pedestal vase.
The underside bears the impressed LUCIA mark and model number 2101. Lucia Ware is a range from Boksburg East Potteries in Boksburg, South Africa. The amphora-style body combines rounded shoulders with a tapered lower section and a circular flared foot. Its glossy burgundy surface emphasises these changes in contour without additional painted decoration. A light blue example of model 2101 offers a direct comparison of colour within the same numbered form, rather than a comparison based solely on a similar silhouette. For comparison, the Lucia Ware Light Blue Ceramic Double-Handled Vase Style 2101 provides related examples of form, decoration or maker within the store.
