A T3004 Medium Wheel Vase decorated by Tina Doubleday (later Richards) who worked at the Troika pottery for just two years between 1977 and 1979. Often confused as a CC monogram for Colin Carbis, the mark has now been confirmed as Tina's.
This lovely vase is decorated on an oatmeal colour ground with strong geometric design in deep relief on the front face, and a somewhat more abstract design of discs and lines on the obverse face, with the designs being highlighted in blue, dark brown and light grey matt glaze. The interior is in the bright titanium white tinglaze. The base carries the hand-written Troika Cornwall mark and the 'backward double C' monogram for Tina Doubleday.
The vase is approximately 16.5cm (6½ inches) diameter and 5cm (2 inches) deep. A beautiful vase in lovely condition with no chips or cracks, and guaranteed free from any restoration.
