Vintage Shorter & Son "Daisy Bell" Spill Vase - Bicycle Built for Two - Staffordshire England c.1940s.
This vintage ceramic spill vase, produced by the renowned Shorter & Son Ltd of Stoke-on-Trent, depicts the classic Victorian-era characters from the song "Daisy Bell (A Bicycle Built for Two)." Hand-painted with vibrant colors, it features a gentleman with a handlebar mustache and his "Daisy" riding a tandem bicycle. The piece serves as a double spill vase (historically used to hold wooden splints for lighting fires) or a posy vase for small floral arrangements.
