J. Hoare Flora-form Vase – SOLD |
This is a blank shape, that as far as I know, was solely cut by J. Hoare. The style and execution is also that of J. Hoare. I just love the form of this one – resembling a tall, healthy flower with it’s flaring rim.
The design of the vase features plate hobstars which are surrounded on all sides by triple miter bordered fields. Some of these are left clear, which others are filled with crosshatching. Fans continue upward at the top of the design. Both the stem and rim are notched and fluted and there is a chain of crosshatced fields surrounding the neck. The base is finished with an impressive 32-point hobstar!
Condition is perfect and the vase measures 12″ tall and 4 5/8″ across the base.
