This beautiful jardiniere (a large, decorative bowl) is our item of the month for October!
This item dates from the 1930s and was designed by Truda Carter (1890-1958), perhaps one of the most underestimated and overlooked female ceramic designers of the twentieth century, and was made by Poole Pottery in Dorset, England.
