Rare Slat Glazed Moorcroft Orchid Vase

Orchids were William Moorcroft designs that evolved over the years. Salt-glazed pieces were introduced in the 1920s and impressed marks were used from 1928 to 1949. This piece is probably 1930s.

The condition is very good with no cracks, or signs of restoration. There is some light crazing and discolouration typical of both Moorcroft and salt-glazed pieces (see photos).
