Design: #25
Date Designed: 1901
Designer: Artus Van Briggle
Description: Tall vase, with examples of fragile Columbine flowers (Colorado’s state flower) encircling the vase. A rich green glaze covers the vase, with the glaze partially obscuring the bottom markings around the edges. Bottom markings visible are the Double-A, Van Briggle, date of 1902 and Roman Numeral III indicating clay type; all in the handwriting attributed to Artus Van Briggle.
Dimensions: Height – 10″ Width – 4″ at widest point
Other: There is no Design # visible. It has been recorded that Artus did not begin adding the Design # until the latter part of 1902. Even with the partially obscured bottom; part of any Design # would probably have been visible, if it had been included. Because we can see no evidence of one; it is assumed this is probably an example from the early 1902 period.
Collection: Edmund B. Wodehouse
