A vase from the north of Holland. It dates from 1929-1932. It was painted by JG van Vliet on a design by Elke Snel.

several times i almost bought one but nowadays you rarely see them and are pretty expensive nice texture of glaze!
Many thanks again. This is the only one I have seen here. I've had it more than twenty years. I only knew about it when I went to the Netherlands for the first time in the early nineties. Until then I only knew it was Dutch and not the regular Gouda we see here.
