Provenance:
The Hida Takayama Museum of Art, inv.no.H87
Sotheby's sale 19 December 2002, lot 88
A British private collection
Literature:
This vase was photographed by George Woodall and can be seen in a group of six vases on one of a series of glass photographic plates preserved in the Woodall family. This photograph is reproduced by Ray and Lee Grover, English Cameo Glass (1980), pl.134.
Another vase of the same shape, also multi-layered and in the Persian taste, was sold by Bonhams in San Francisco, 14 June 2010, lot 5090. A 'Moorish' vase also of the same shape and three-coloured was sold by Sotheby's New York 14 June 2006, lot 362. These spectacular pieces are almost certainly the work of George Woodall and the Woodall team.
