Extra Bokhara

This Jam pot is painted by Mary Lowman in the OEB pattern designed by Robert Jefferson to decorate the Bokhara Jars that Poole was making in the 1960s.  The preserve jar shape, certainly the lid, seems to be more in the style of the "Contour" tableware that Jefferson designed about the same time.  There seems to have been quite a bit of rather free and easy mixing of patterns and shapes at Poole.
