Description
This ceramic flower vase is textured to resemble a tree trunk; it is embellished with a maple-leaf design. Color varies between autumn-brown and -burnt orange. Markings on the base are covered with a piece of felt (placed by owner to prevent scratching of furniture). However, I also have a matching small, rectangular "planter"--6.75" x 2 5/8" x 2 5/8" high (design extends to 3.75" high). Marking on bottom reads "Roseville U.S.A. 383-6". Vase is in excellent condition; planter, very good.

Re: Roseville Vase and Planter
These are in the Roseville Bushberry pattern, first issued in 1941. The color on your's is a bit odd though. Here's a link to Bushberry pieces sold at auction so far this year:
