177 (Early Series) TWO SHAPES
This is one of the Early Series numbers for which shape-book information exists.
The shape-book entry attests to the practice during the early years of re-assigning a shape number to a new shape.
177 (Early Series) Flasks with bulb base, slender neck and three spiral handles.
There is no example of this shape recorded in the image database. It is known only from the shape book. It is not known in any other series. Two sizes are indicated, 4 inch (10 cm) and 6 inch (15 cm).
.
177 (Early Series) Vase with two-cone base, wide straight throat and small flare.
Does this shape appear in other series? No - (none recorded in image database) although judging by shape-book sketches two other Early Series shapes are similar,
Early Series 39 and
Early Series 202.
Their sizes however are unknown.
Height; 16 - 17 cm
This second 177 shape clearly post-dates and supersedes the first.
