Signed Roya but who's it made by?
« on: May 17, 2016, 11:33:51 PM »
the vase is marked Roya to the base in gold.
Who's the manufacturer of the vase - I presume the artist is Roya.
And how old is the vase?
Thanks.
JPM.

Could that be Royo not Roya?   They did lots of stuff like this.   Cheryl

Welcome to the message board JPM.

Royo was a decorator in Spain who bought blanks from glass makers and painted bright, bold and whimsical designs in enamel. He probably worked for many decades, more topics on the subject can be found on this board using the search function.
