Portmeirion Botanic Garden Spice Jar ORCHID Rare CUT-OFF 2nd

A Botanic Garden Orchid three inch high spice jar with a wooden lid. This motif is one of the six original oatmeal bowl flowers but is a quite rare variation. It is a 'cut-off' version, used only around 1980, with the purple bloom removed and with a different arrangement of insects. I think it was meant to be applied to areas where less space was available for the transfer.

The canister is in overall excellent condition with NO crazing and excellent varnish on the wooden lid! This jar is a factory 2nd due to a glaze flaw just above the flower. Please be sure to click below and see the full description and more photos...
