Jobling #11400 Amber Art Deco Glass Bird + Panel Vase

Description

A wonderful art deco frosted amber glass 'Bird and Panel' vase. This design was originally made by British company Jobling in the 1930's, catalogue number 11400, and is featured in the book "A Collectors Guide to Jobling 1930's Decorative Glass", page 18. However, the same design is also shown in Sowerby's catalogue titled "List 39" from the 1950's [link]. From a forum discussion on the Glass Message Board [here], it seems some of Jobling's moulds were sold off to other companies. So this design was made by both Jobling and Sowerby. However comparing the dark amber colour to other pieces, and the high quality finish, it is almost certainly early Jobling production.
