Lenox vase circa 1930

By Kmecca, 8 July, 2024
Description

Rectangular bone china vase by Lenox in Autumn pattern. It is approximately 8" x 5¼" x 3". The vase appears to be in excellent condition aside from some debris in the bottom, which I will clean. The corners where each side meets are sharp and fine, so to speak. It has the signature translucency that bone china is known for. The actual panels are so thin and delicate. The green backstamp and date code indicate it was probably made in 1930. This is confirmed by information I received from Rutgers University Special Collections. (See pictures)

Rutgers University has over 500 boxes of Lenox records. I've searched for which boxes I thought might contain info about this piece.

One of the most intriguing things about this piece is it's absence from any online documentation or image. It doesn't appear in any records at Replacements, collections of Autumn china, ebay, Google Lense search, or Etsy.

Could it have been commissioned for an individual? President Roosevelt, or rather Eleanor, ordered a set of Autumn, separate from the official White House Presidential china. Could this vase have been part of that? I do not know how to research further than I have.

Any information as to history, or how to do additional research? If a value can be determined, I would consider selling it.
