Eliza Simmance - a pair of 7.5in (18.5cm) vases - 264

Is there no limit to the creativity of Eliza Simmance? She may have worked at Doultons for over 50 years, but she managed to keep ahead of the pack when it came to design. These 7.5in (18.5cm) Royal Doulton vases were designed in 1915, - way before one would have guessed!

The vases are stamped with the Royal Doulton mark with crown and lion. They are signed in monogram by Eliza Simmance and numbered 264 by her. One is code-dated (“p”) for 1915, and both are signed in monogram by Eliza Simmance’s highly competent assistant, Jane Hurst. The Vases weigh a total of only 750g.

The vases are in mint condition, without defect or restoration.
