Abstractly decorated small vessel. Signed “A. Heaton 1932”.

Dear Forum

A small porcelain vessel approximately 3.5” in height. Decorated  in a vibrant, naive abstract manner in shades of green, blue and yellow.

Base displays a fine covering of crackling and also has a painted signature reading “A. Heaton. 1932.”  

I see little reason in committing this signature to the piece in order to replicate a Deco pot and therefore my hunch is that it is indeed from 1932. Decoration also arguably evokes the 1930s to me.

Sadly unable to track down any info on this one but am hoping that the collective brain power of The Forum will help illuminate a potential back story for this item.

Thanks in advance as always

It may be an amateur decorated blank, often done early 20th C

I would agree with DD.
