Lapid Israel Mid-Century Cream and Black Pottery Vase with Kiwi Chinese seal It features a large flower

It features a large flower on the lid with a decorative border

while the sifting area is woven of a finely twisted natural fiber the same color just a shade darker than the grass

I believe it is quite an early example of Winfield Pottery

this baby's piecing blue eyes seem as if they are seeing into your soul as they follow you around the room

I just think it’s completely charming

Lapid Israel Mid-Century Cream and Black Pottery Vase with Kiwi Chinese seal It features a large flowerThis mid sized, hand thrown mid century vintage pottery vase features hand painted birds kiwi, I believe repeating around its perimeter. I love the wonderfully graphic treatment of the birds, rendered in a warm, brownish black, with round bodies, upturned beaks, and charmingly stick like little legs and feet. This piece was created at Lapid Pottery Works in Tel Aviv, Israel, a pottery founded shortly after the state of Israel was formed post WWII in
