ROOKWOOD "SIGNED" ORIGINAL SARA "SALLIE" COYNE VASE, c1928











This is a hand-thrown model, number 2120, the glaze is "wax-matte," it dates c1928. This is my first "signed" original piece of Rookwood. And how fantastic to get a piece by Sara "Sallie" Coyne, one of Rookwood's most distinguished decorators/designers, as my first one! Coyne worked at Rookwood Pottery from 1891-1931. Along with K. Shirayamadani, one of the longest tenured decorators/designers. Oh, Joy!
