Lapid Israel Mid-Century Cream and Black Pottery Vase with Kiwi Chinese seal this baby's piecing blue eyes

this baby's piecing blue eyes seem as if they are seeing into your soul as they follow you around the room

I believe it is quite an early example of Winfield Pottery

I just think it’s completely charming

and there are a couple of small tears to the cotton ground of one of the sleeves

Lapid Israel Mid-Century Cream and Black Pottery Vase with Kiwi Chinese seal this baby's piecing blue eyesThis mid sized, hand thrown mid century vintage pottery vase features hand painted birds kiwi, I believe repeating around its perimeter. I love the wonderfully graphic treatment of the birds, rendered in a warm, brownish black, with round bodies, upturned beaks, and charmingly stick like little legs and feet. This piece was created at Lapid Pottery Works in Tel Aviv, Israel, a pottery founded shortly after the state of Israel was formed post WWII in
