Produced during the Walter Moorcroft era in the highly sought-after transitional period of the late 1930s to early 1940s, the vase bears the Royal Warrant wording “Potter to the Queen” and the hand-painted “W. Moorcroft” signature. The softly modelled orchid bloom, refined tube-lining, and gently graduated green-to-blue ground exemplify the artistic quality and depth for which early Moorcroft pottery is internationally prized.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e⸻\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition: Very Good Vintage Condition – see detailed notes below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\t•\tNo chips, cracks, or repairs observed\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\t•\tFine age-related crazing consistent with period Moorcroft pottery\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\t•\tStrong, balanced colour palette with excellent depth\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\t•\tCrisp tube-lining with gentle relief\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\t•\tClean base with clear and legible markings\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\t•\tA well-preserved, collector-grade example\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e📸 The photos form part of the description – please examine them closely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e⸻\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePostage \u0026amp; Handling:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e📦 All items are carefully wrapped and packaged to ensure they arrive safely at their new forever home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\t•\tCombined postage available — please contact us before purchasing for a revised invoice\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\t•\tInternational shipping available (UK \u0026amp; US buyers welcome)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\t•\tLocal pickup available by arrangement from Vintage HQ\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e⸻\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeed to Know More?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eHave questions or would like additional photos?
