WOOD & SONS - Yuan

Vases

The vases shown right are typical of Frederick Rhead's more "fancy" output for Wood & Sons in the 1920s, but for some reason are very rarely seen in the YUAN pattern, which is usually confined to tableware.

Judging by other Woods vases we have seen (see photos below), these two are the largest and smallest sizes produced in this cylindrical shape, approx 10 ins and 6 ins high respectively.

The small vase is pictured here with a similar Woods vase in the ORIENTAL BIRDS design.

The large vase is shown here with a similar Woods vase in the KANG-HI pattern (also a Frederick Rhead design).

Please click here to view more KANG-HI items.

The YUAN vases are not marked with the Woods backstamp, but with "H. M. & Co ENGLAND Reg No 656368".

This registration is the correct number for YUAN and is the proof, if any is needed, that the vases were manufactured by Woods, H.M. being the retailer's initials.

If YOU have any idea what these initials might stand for, we'd love to hear from you... please e-mail us at:
