Royal Doulton Vases

This pair of Royal Doulton vases were given by Sir Ronald Doulton as a gift to his good friend Philip Percy Field. They were brought to Canada when the family immigrated in 1912. Philip named a son Ronald after his friend and the name has continued for three generations.
My great grandfather, Philip Percy Field would place his wooded matches in the vases that were used to light his cigars and pipe. To this day shaking the vase you will hear them rattling around. I'm leaving the matches in the vases.

Manufactured date: 1903-1905
