Vintage Shawnee Oriental Woman & Lute Pottery Vase

Vintage vase from the 1950s, maybe earlier. Potter with a brick red/mauve glaze. Unique oval shape with flaired top. Design on both sides. Design is an oriental woman playing a lute. Made by Shawnee Pottery. Vase is 7 1/2 inches high, 6 1/8 inches long, and about 3 inches front to back. Good vintage condition. Spot on the bottom of one side where the glaze didn't cover (Probably bubbled). This is from the manufacturer and is common in such pieces. Mark on bottom unglazed edge that looks like an old surface chip. 2 spots that look like stone marks right next to each other. 1 on unglazed bottom edge, other just inside the glazed area. See photos. Great for anyone into vintage pottery or oriental style items. Great for displaying your favorite flowers, or as decor by itself. tags: pottery, vase, oriental, asian, woman, lute, music theme, collectible, display, decor, decorative, floral, musician, lady, flowers
