This piece of art pottery is called a "Corseted Shoulder Vase". The vase is a nice cabinet size as it stands 5 1/8" tall and is 3 1/4" in diameter at the shoulder area. The foot has a diameter of 2 3/16. This vase displays a corseted shoulder form with raised lip. It is covered in a deep smooth textured blue glaze.

This is also known as the infamous "Marblehead Blue" glaze. This is such a pleasing matt blue glaze and I can see why it was so popular during the day. The inside displays a lighter matte Robins egg blue waterproofing glaze.

The two tones of blue look outstanding together. The vase is considered to be excellent condition as there are no cracks, nicks, chips or dings. The vase is solid and has good weight for its size. Those of you who collect Marblehead Pottery and want a very nice example of this form in this size will surely welcome it into their collection. This vase would look just outstanding in or on that Stickley, mission style arts and crafts bookcase.

This is a hard to find form in this size. I have only seen a handful in my 47+ years as a collector and dealer. Marblehead Pottery was established in 1904 by Dr. Hall as a Studio Art Pottery in Marblehead, Massachusetts using the art and technique of ceramics manufacturing and decorating as a rehabilitation and therapeutic aid to local sanitarium patients at Hall's Devereux Mansion Sanitarium.

Marblehead Pottery stopped producing Art Pottery in 1936. Marblehead Pottery was a small Pottery Company never employing more than 6 workers. Their Pottery is considered somewhat scare as compared to their Contemporaries of the day. No store lets you out of the building with the merchandise unless it is paid for.
