Title: Help in identifying Sowerby-type vases. - ID = Sowerby "Dora"
Post by: Neil on March 13, 2013, 06:15:19 AM

I have these 3 vases, but, as yet, I have not been able to find a site that has identified them.
I am sure others have made queries about them before, so, perhaps they now have some insight as to their maker.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Neil — Sowerby "Dora" vases, launched c.1936.   See BGbtW item 167.   I'm still looking for the pattern No., which should be in the 1936 trade catalogue.

Bernard,
Sorry for the delay in responding to your identification of the vases for me. I was in Europe for about 4 months, and had not returned to GMB until recently.
Thanks so much for your assistance.
Neil
