Wonderful and rare Early Step Top Vase which is finished in a highly textured light brown ceramic. This has then been decorated on one face only by a simple and elegant dark brown painted circle and the relief features picked out in the same paint. The texture underneath is still visible as the paint has been thinned to allow this. The painted back stamp ‘Troika St Ives’ also carries the initials of Benny Sirota. -
