“FIRST ONE OUT”
PRESTIGE VASE
LIMITED EDITION OF 10
RETAIL PRICE £1100

It is almost ten years since Stephen Smith’s first “Robins” vase for Moorcroft Enamels took the fine art world by storm, as it was painted on the inside as well as the outside.

Stephen has revisited the theme of Robins for his first prestige design on a new 3 inch china vase. This stunning piece of freehand painted china demonstrates just how much the “inside-outside” technique, which was first developed by Stephen, has moved on in the intervening years.

“First One Out” is vastly more complex in concept and design than “Robins”, and depicts the moment when four youngsters prepare to leave the nest for the first time. On the inside of the vase, three gorgeously spotted chicks think about leaving the safety of the nest. On the outside, the most adventurous fledgling is the “first one out” and begs for food from its parents.

At every level, this vase will enthral and captivate the viewer - from the overall finish, shape and feel in the hand, through the finest details of plumage on six birds in different poses, to the subtle delicacy of the blossom and leaves, this piece exudes the highest quality and brings a fresh interpretation to a popular subject.

At a retail price of £1100, this piece represents incredible value in today's market place and has been eagerly awaited by Stephen’s large following of collectors worldwide.

Please contact one of the STOCKISTS to reserve.

Steve will be selling one of the edition himself at the full retail price once orders to retailers have been completed.
