Description: This vintage Lefton ceramic pheasant vase is numbered 50576 and it still has the red foil tag that reads "Lefton's REG US PAT OFFEXCLUSIVES JAPAN". It is a square planter shape with two holes in the back for hanging, but it stands flat on it's own. It shows a pheasant standing next to a small tree or bush. Great accent piece in very good condition. I cannot find any chips or cracks. There are some dark spots inside from when this must have been used as a planter, and I have cleaned it to the best of my ability, but the outside is very clean and unstained. Would look great with an air fern or hold a tiny pot. Lefton's was founded by Hungarian sportswear designer George Zoltan Lefton. Lefton China of Chicago, Illinois, imported porcelain decorative objects such as figurines and head vases, as well as kitchen wares such as cookie jars and salt-and-pepper shakers, from postwar Japan. From 1946 to 1953 pieces may also bear a red sticker with either silver or gold trim on their bases, which reads “Lefton’s Exclusives Japan.” Objects made after 1953 added the words “Reg. U.S. Pat. Off.” At its peak, Lefton products were featured in over 10,000 stores within the United States. Maintaining a high quality, Lefton competed actively with ENESCO and NAPCO.
