BOTANIC GARDEN 6.5 INCH RHODODENDRON TUSCANY VASE
Unusual Double Version Of Pretty Pink Coffee Cup Flower - Excellent Condition!
|
I am pleased to offer a very nice Portmeirion Botanic Garden Tuscany almost 7 inch high vase
featuring a Rhododendron or Rhododendron Lepidotum transfer on two
sides. This is an unusual and retired double version of the Rhododendron that
was used on B & B plates for a time in the 1980's or 1990's. The single version is still in production today.
The vase is in great condition with no signs of use and quite clean!

The Rhododendron flower was an original 1973 coffee cup motif and later
included on a bread and butter plates in 1988. It remains in a current motif and is in
production today. It was based on an image in an 1840 book,Moral of
Flowers by Mrs. Hey, illustrated by William Clarke, 1835 by A. Jacquemart.
