Topic: Possible Whitefriars Harry Powell

[flying free]

here's one from what they call the 'series' in the British Museum.  Not sure if it belongs to the same 'series' as the one you originally linked to but it has similarities

so perhaps they did come in different shapes?

Here is a better link to that piece with information and I think the photo enlarges to see details

It was the light bulb moment at a car boot , it instantly reminded me of the of the harry Powell lotus vase and thought I wonder if wf made one without the engraving. It is very well made ,its definitely sea green 14 cm high the same as the lotus and got a folded foot the same as the lotus vase . It makes a wonderful ring when pinged. .

hi  -  yes, I know that sound  -  the odd bowl of theirs that I've found over the years has rung, when flicked, in just the same way  -  there's almost no other ring quite like that of W/Fs.
This overall sort of 'conical shape seems to go back quite a long way in their repertoire -  have to admit that I don't think I would have been able to say - when walking past the boot table - ah, there a piece of Harry Powell - so very well done.

Has this been confirmed  as a Harry Powell then?
