Hi, bought a vase but who’s Phil RSA? Or is it just some students work? Either way I like it.

Lovely decoration. I’ve seen the bird motif on foreign pieces, but I can’t remember which country. I’m wondering if RSA is South Africa?

Thanks NaomiM. No idea where it’s from originally. Chickens decoration ( I’m assuming they’re chickens) look like the speckled Suffolk breed.
Does RSA stand for Royal society of arts? Are they known for ceramics?

This is the bird I’m thinking of. A common motif on some South African pottery

Your vase looks premoulded, so Phil is likely to be the decorator. Maybe a Free Trade community crafts product.

You’re bang on for South Africa. Thanks again.
