GOUDA, HOLLAND, REGINA, "ROBUR" PATTERN

This lovely high-glazed Regina trumpet vase dates to c. 1920. Its pattern name is Robur. In the early years at the Regina factory the glossy patterns were very popular. Most of them were formed in the old Rozenburg moulds but Regina also had their own. Famous old glossy patterns are "Cordoba", "Robur", "Olga" and the "Uni" pattern of which "Robur" and "Olga" were produced for the Australian and South American market. These patterns were not interesting enough for the European market. Patterns "Olga" and "Robur" were probably inspired by the designs of T.A.C. Colenbrander, who worked at the Rozenburg factory and later at the Zuid-Holland factory.
