“Lady head vase, ” or “head planters” refer to a style of ceramic vase popularized during the 1950's and generally featuring the head or bust of a person, usually a woman. Originally, head vases were produced by florist compa...nies to hold the bouquets they sold. This one was produced by Napco in post war Japan and is probably from the 1950's. Her accessory - the single pearl earring - is still intact.
I cleaned the item up however it could use a little more attention.This was found in a basement among floral baskets and vases. It had been used for flower arrangements as there was still some green florist foam in the planter. She shows some wear from that use and as you can see from the pictures some of the blue on the bow has been worn off. See pictures for details. No cracks or chips!
I am finally out of the basement so please buy me and take me home!
