A highly collectable Cube Vase from the Newlyn Pottery. This Vase is 3¾ inches (9½cm) cubed, and decorated by Holly Jackson, a designer/paintress who joined Troika in 1977 at 16 and stayed for only 7 months. She is the Grand-daughter of Alec Walker the fabric designer, who set up the Cryséde company. Due to Holly's short employment at Troika, her work is both rare and much sought after.
This cube is in the recognisable beige/brown colour with each of the four sides bearing a different design, with two faces having the deeply sculpted patterns picked out in blue and light grey highlight colours. The interior of the cube is in the usual titanium white tin glaze and the base carries the hand-painted Troika mark and Holly's monogram.
In lovely condition, this would make an ideal starter piece for a budding Troika collector.
