36 z (Early Series) Tall cylindrical vase, flared base.
Does this shape appear in other series? No, not in other series but it appears elsewhere in the Early Series as
Early Series 7/9k. This number 36z seems anomalous, possibly a mistake. (Mistakes did happen - see the
'Pitfalls' page.) This piece is the only known example.
Height; 23 cm
Applied kookaburra decoration attributed to John Castle-Harris

36 (Early Series) THREE SHAPES
: This is one of those Early Series numbers that was assigned twice, first to a PPP shape and subsequently to a Remued shape. In this case, however, a second Remued shape also seems to have acquired the same number. Such a doubling-up was perhaps just a mistake although some strange things did happen with shape numbering when it came to animal-decorated pieces.
36 (Early Series) Tall vase with spout in lip.
Does this shape appear in other series? No - not in other series but it is like
Early Series 189 which is a jug and not quite as large. This vase has the same body shape as that jug including a spout.
In a shape book it is marked "Special". Most recorded examples have applied decoration of three-dimensional animals. The animals are attributed to John Castle-Harris and it may be speculated that the unusually heavy-veined leaf seen on 36M is also his.
Height; 20 - 22 cm
