Fabulous Meriden Old Irish Tazza Vase – SOLD

This is one of the most elegant, well-done patterns of the Brilliant Period. Appropriately named Old Irish – it is similar to some of the work done in Ireland leading into the Brilliant Period.

Meriden’s Old Irish combines sharp, diamond point cutting combined with deep, clear channels for a stunning effect. The rim is finished in a fan and u-notch combination. The base has a large, pinwheel working its way outward to the scalloped edge.

The Tazza is extremely heavy on a gorgeous, clear blank. It measures 10″ tall an 8″ wide. Certainly one of the nicer Tazzas i’ve seen.
