Antique VAN BRIGGLE POTTERY VASE Mulberry Glaze Design #645 Early 1920's SIGNED #1Here is a beautiful piece of art pottery made by The Van Briggle Pottery Company of Colorado Springs, Colorado. It is done in Van Briggle's most desirable Mulberry Glaze. The vase stands 4-1/2" tall.The vase displays a pleasing Arts and Crafts design of raised leaves and stem. There's a deep rich matte Maroon Glaze with a purple overspray on the raised or embossed leaves. The form is very nice and the detail is great.The vase is considered to be in very good condition as there are no cracks, no nicks, no chips, and no dings. The only issue is there is crazing in the glaze, which is very common with the earlier Mulberry glazes. The piece is signed on the bottom with Van Briggle's incised double conjoined logo and "VAN BRIGGLE" in block letters along with "U.S.A.". This clearly dates this piece to be 1922-1926 as Van Briggle used the USA incised signature mark during that time period.Those of you who collect Van Briggle in the Mulberry Glaze will surely welcome this early addition. This was known as shape #695 in the Van Briggle catalog pages. A very nice example and perfect for any collection.Designed by Emma Kinkead in 1907, and produced in the time between 1922-1926. Marked with VB logo, Van Briggle, and U.S.A.
