Vase
Continuing the practice of the Ceramic Art Company, Lenox, America's premiere twentieth-century porcelain manufacturer, produced porcelain blanks for amateurs to decorate. This vase is painted in a bright palette with stylized bouquets of trumpet-vine blossoms divided by geometric motifs. Thick enamel application—seen on the flowers, for example—emulates the popular Far Eastern Satsuma ware.
