thanks for posting Sue - a very attractive piece, and I could offer it a very good home if ever you want to part withit
...... did occur to me - in view of the uncommoness of Harbridge - whether the Mods might let us start a picture file especially for that factory
As requested herewith pictures attached of my Stuart/Stonier vase with frog/support.
British Rd. Nos. normally protect body shapes/designs only, rather than decorative features such as cutting, and in view of the date of May 1914 for Reg. No. 637674 showing on the support, I had assumed that the sister No. 637675 - from precisely the same date - must cover the shape of the vase (although this vase is without a No.)
Then a little panic set in - I thought I'd found a match for the shape of the vase in Miller's/McConnell, where the start date of what I thought was the same shape is given as c. 1931 - so confusion - had it been the same shape as my vase I would have expected the caption to show a start date of 1914.
However, I'm of the opinion that the book vase (Stuart factory pattern No. 27480) is not quite the same as my example. Could be wrong but there appear to be differences in overall shape - although if you compare the two there are sufficient similarities to cast doubt - so I'm now not entirely sure and this will need a visit to Kew I think.
The vase is very distinctive with these massive scallops around the rim.
Of course Stuart may well have produced one or two vase shapes over the years that could accommodate this rather wide support ... it measures almost 185 mm (7.25") at the widest - and the factory is well known for continuing some pattern shapes for many decades.
Apologies for digressing from the rather nice Harbridge vase.
