I got this vase many years ago at the Sal. Army....do you know the company and the designer?

Ben, David, ?

This is a real stumper. Several ideas come to mind--from Bennington & David Gil to an obscure pottery mark I've found called Warren. The item has an architectural pottery look and feel to it, but I've never seen anything like this before. Finally, given that you are the world's Ben expert and since I've seen striped DeMaray with hand sgriffito lines (albeit on much thicker pottery), I would also guess Ben Seibel and DeMaray.

It appears the vase shown in this post (the right vase) is from the same line?

Re: Bennington Potters vase

Here's the final "proof", with a date, no less. These shots are from the Bennington Museum David Gil exhibition last year.
