Re: Roche

Oh nice! I appreciate the counterpoint of the unglazed bottoms and the dimensionality of gradated, speckled glazes.

Lovely!

I scored a Walter Roche small brown & white striped vase not long ago (same yard sale as my Chalice ashtray). I can't decide whether to keep it or sell it!

Love the simplicity and lines of Roche.

A great find!

Re: Roche

Keep it!  You'll not find another one at yard sale prices anytime soon.  :-{)

Re: Roche

Actually, I got it for free! I helped a family friend clean out his house, and run a yard sale, before his move to a retirement community. I got a few nice things for free for helping.

It really is nice looking. Not making any decisions now. But I am trying to cull down on my "stuff", of which I have way too much, and keep only those things I really love.
