Lydia Barge
My first post on this site.
I have had this vase for many years now and would love to know a little bit more about it.
I don't have many pottery reference books and could not find any information on the net.
hopefully someone will look in with some input.
The vase is 142 mm high, 55mm at the base and 125mm at the top.
Thanks in anticipation,

Re: Lydia Barge
I have found a few Lydia Barge auction results and completed sales but nothing more. Potting in the 50s-60s

Re: Lydia Barge
No, I was going through some old photo albums so I thought I’d add it to the thread

Re: Lydia Barge
...and the mention of Rhu leads to this article about her father, which fills in a bit of background though Lydia is only mentioned in passing.
