Note; The renowned garden designer Gertrude Jekyll was asked by the London retailer James Green to design a range of flower vases, the result was known as the 'Munstead range', named after Munstead Wood, Jekyll's own cottage designed by the architect Sir Edwin Lutyens (1869-1944).
A sheet from a catalogue showing various sizes of this vase is currently in the collection of the Museum of London. This vase is larger than the largest (13inch) version illustrated on this sheet. To date only one other example of this size is known and was exhibited in London in 2008.
