Charlotte, the best thing you can do is to take it to someone who is very familiar with Roseville. I find it odd that you can't ID it in the book and that would make me all the more cautious. Good luck!

I have searched books on Roseville Pottery and cannot find my piece yet. I am sure it is authentic as the bottom mark fits all the requirements. The number is 21 and is 9" tall.The background is brown while the base is green. The raised leaves are green and the single flower on each side is blue. There are no scratches, nics, breaks. It is in mint/factory condition.

WWW= The nimber should actually be 188-6, the Clematis two handled vase? Here is a picture http://www.rubylane.com/shops/antiquetreasurechest/item/JW-64722

Made in 1944 this was a very popular roseville pattern and is much sought after by collectors. The problem is that this was also reproduced and the reproductions are hard to spot unless you are an expert. The price on an authentic 188-6 ranges from 90.00 to 125.00, but a reproduction is worthless. It is best to take your Roseville to someone who specializes in vintage Roseville. GOod luck!
