GOUDA-DESIGN
Henk & José Gouda Collection - Part 1
Henk & José present some favourite pieces from their collection.
Henk & José from near Amsterdam tell us - "The collection began about ten years ago after rebuilding the livingroom and wanting something colourful on the mantelpiece. The first pieces were two identical 'Corona' vases from April 1920. They were bought at an auction. We currently have about ninety pieces and only collect the matte green of Plateelbakkerij Zuid-Holland. They were all made in the period from 1910 to 1923."

Two mirror image 'Ete' vases, painted pedantic, about 1915/1917. Designer was W. P. Hartgring. Painter not certain, possibly a mark of Anthonie (Toon) Thesingh, the joined 'TT'. We didn't buy the vases as a set. The left vase we bought a few years ago then two month ago we came across the right one! Height is 27.2cm. |
