Antoinette Mosaic Planter

Description

A fresh take on vintage mid-century pottery, this small matte creamy white florist's planter is now something special. I've used antique and vintage fine chinas and semi-vitreous chinas in an overall color scheme of blue, white, and pink with touches of black and tan. Grouted in white, and sealed with grout sealant. Planter is in excellent vintage condition with mild staining to the inside, and moderate staining to the feet. Bottom identification is "Floraline U.S.A.", mold number is present but I can't read it. Maybe 811 or 311. No chips or cracks, but there are a few minor manufacturing flaws typical of this type of pottery. It presents very well, and would look charming on a desk, dresser, or windowsill, perhaps holding some favored photos, ephemera, or your vintage button collection.

3 3/4H x 6 3/8 x 3 3/4 inches exterior.
3 1/4H x 5 7/8 x 3 3/16 interior at top, then tapers smaller towards bottom.
