Vase 1877 - 1879

This porcelain vase, created by the Union Porcelain Works between 1877 and 1879, is a whimsical and charming piece of American art pottery. The vase is shaped like a stylized plant with a turtle perched on the stem. It is made in a creamy white glaze, which gives the vase a delicate and elegant appearance. The vase, which can be found at The Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to the craftsmanship of the Union Porcelain Works, and is a fine example of the Art Pottery Movement.
