Topic: Dartington I presume?

[redheat4]

Hi all, I presume this is Dartington but in the book by Eve Thrower & Mark Hill all references to the "nipple" vases show them with plain open tops not with this "candle holder" style. It is 13 cm tall. I know Frank got much of his ideas through scandinavian influence, I wonder if this is one of Franks creations or something that influenced him.

I've seen that top on other Dartington pattern pieces, but like you, not on this pattern. My gut feeling is it's right but I'd be happier if someone else could confirm that for you.

Thanks Anne, my gut feeling also says it is right for Dartington but there is always that niggle at the back of your mind. :chky:

It's an FT94 three nipple vase/candle holder, first produced in 1969
