This set is interesting. The pattern used is the Country-Time pattern; however, the items themselves appear in neither of the Country-Time brochures I have. Are any of these items a Ben Seibel design? |

Lotus, ca.1952 On page 231 of Understanding Roseville Pottery by Mark Bassett, there is a photograph of Ben holding a drawing of the Lotus line. The back of the photograph is labeled, "Left: Ben Seibel (Designer)..." Bassett writes, "While working with the New York design firm Smith and Scheer, Ben Seibel designed Lotus and perhaps a few previous Roseville's lines. Neither the recent Chinese Modern lines nor Florane exhibited Frank Ferrell's highly recognizable style." |
