| Exceptional Rookwood Iris Glaze LARGE MUG decorated with Purple Hanging Head Oriental Poppies! The background color is that of Sea Foam Green, and one would think this item was actually Sea Green if it were not marked with the W for White or Iris Glaze on the base. The mug stands 5 3/4" tall and measures 5 1/2" across at the widest point. The mug has very fine light overall crazing which seems to have become magnified in our images due to the flash of the camera. It truly is light and even. The base has the Rookwood Reverse RP and 14 Flame Logo, V for the year 1905, W for White or Iris Glaze, and Artist Initials which appear to be those by Marianna Mitchell. There are the Shape #s 587B which denotes it LARGE size. There is a Wheel Ground very small X due to a small Sliver like glaze skip on the top rim. It looks as though it may have just touched something in the kiln and the glaze pulled a tiny sliver off when it was removed. This item has not other condition issues, chips, cracks or repairs to note. Shipping is $12.00 plus Optional Insurance Fee in the Continental U.S. | ||
