Jacobean, Josef Inwald | |
There were dozens of shapes made in this classic pattern. It is often referred to simply as Ranger, although that is the name of another more obscure pattern. So knowlegable collectors use the term Jacobean as that's the name used in early advertisments to describe the pattern. The pattern is often confused with a similar one from Australia called Blocks and Arches. The water pitcher above is oblong in shape and only a few known. This one sold at a 2004 auction for $375.

This piece was listed as a large stemmed banana boat when it sold in 2016 for $160. Turns out this is actually a pattern called Henry, probably by Rosice of Czechoslovakia. Photo courtesy of Seeck Auctions.
This 6-inch marigold vase sold in 2020 for $95. This is also not Jacobean though I don't know if it has even been identifield. Note the vertical bands between the blocks, which do not occur on the Jacobean. Photo courtesy of Seeck Auctions.
In 2021, another of these 6-inch marigold vases sold for $125.

Here are two rare 9-inch vases in the Jacobean Ranger pattern. The one on the left is owned by Ted Meeker, on the right by Joan Doty. Yet a third 9-inch vase was reported by Hazel Bridges and was found in a Paris flea market some years ago.
