99 (Later Series) Large plump vase, narrowed neck
:
This vase (and also
Later Series 100) seems a surprising item to be produced under wartime restrictions requiring manufactured goods to be utilitarian not decorative. It is rare. Clearly few were produced. The only recorded example was kept by the family of potter Allan James.
Height; 32.5 cm.

A blue-glazed example is also reported. Unconfirmed, no image available.
Twig-handle
Twig-handles are a rarity in the Later Series.
In sales brochures showing selected Early Series pieces, items with twig-handles are labelled with the suffix 'H', but the suffix does not appear on any of the many twig-handled Early Series pots recorded in the image database. Here is a rare Later Series example with twig-handle and 'H' suffix (another is
Later Series 91).
