A new arrival to the Perfect Pieces Troika pottery sale section is a super Troika pottery marmalade shaped vase decorated by the popular Avril Bennet.
The Troika Marmalade vase is a popular Troika pottery shape – partly due to it’s mixture of textured and smooth finish, it’s size makes it easily place-able in any home and its affordability to collectors.
This example has geometric designs on all four sides finished with a dark blue glazed rounded top. It has been decorated by Avril Bennet who worked at Troika when they had a factory in Newlyn in Cornwall. She was there from 1973 to 1979. Click here for further photographs of this Troika vase.

Troika Pottery’s collectable appeal has been stronger in recent years than at any time since its 1960s/70s heyday.
It’s perhaps not surprising, then, that contemporary art website “The Art House” will be producing a new studio collection of artwork paying homage to the designs and themes of the Troika Pottery.
The Troika Collection 2008 will be available soon on their website and you can find an example picture and a little more information on the The Art House Blog.
The single picture (the second one actually is Troika) doesn’t give much idea of what to expect, but I will certainly be interested to see what’s on offer and will post here when more information is available.
