Rare Relco Lady Head Vase

Pottery : Head Vase : Lady : Relco

 

This pretty lady is simply a delight with her wide white bow with leopard shaped gold spots on her teal green hat. She poses with her fragile index finger up in a just-so fashion. A stunning model being super clean with gorgeous color. There is not even any crazing in her finish. Her nice generous size will make her a standout in your collection.

Condition: Excellent condition having no chips, cracks or crazing. One eyelash was a bit sloppily painted from the factory (see closeup) I tried to pick the extra paint off to determine if it was repaint but it will not budge! The top of one eyelash was flaking a bit so both lashes were given a matte finish touch-up and look perfect now. Her teal matte paint has a nice bisque feel to it. I do see brush strokes but I would argue that that is the way her artist painted her originally and that she is not repainted. I only see one color on the vase and it looks and feels original. Some minor scuffing on the inside brim of the hat but nothing major.
