A Majolica glazed posy vase from the Staffordshire pottery region of England, attributed to Wardle & Co. circa 1860.
The vase is molded as a woman’s hand holding an upright ear of corn in a green husk with a pink interior. The base is formed as a lace cuff.
7 inches high x 2.5 inches in diameter.
Hand vases were popular during the Victorian era for holding posies or spills. Spill vases have a cylindrical holder for containing splints or rolled paper tapers called spills, used for transferring flame to light a candle or a pipe from a hearth fire.
Light wear to the upper rim as expected. A glazed over divot on the rim, in the making.
