"Herbaceous" Oval Asymmetric Flask
Tax included.
This is an "Herbaceous" oval (asymmetric) flask
This was made in early 2022.
and was a forerunner (test piece) for the English Country Garden design.
In the very early 1960's (and, yes, I do indeed remember the early 60's!)
there was a quintessentially English song that was just played everywhere called
"English Country Garden" sung by Jimmie Rodgers
(who was, somewhat incongruously, an American!)
When I hear it now it takes me straight back to when I was six or seven!
if you need a reminder.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUyxCP5Rvco
It is quite an eccentric shape and I can't decide whether I really like this piece or whether it's a "dog's breakfast"!
...either way it paved the way into the English Country Garden design so that makes it a jolly good thing!
It measures 160mm high x 140mm wide x 110 deep
It is signed Siddy Langley 2022
