Yellow Rookwood Production Glaze

This is my second favorite Rookwood production glaze.  Love these pieces with the dripping mustard yellow glaze.  This Louise Abel nude paperweight #2868 is seen pretty often in online auctions.  But I have never seen one as nice as this 1926 example.  I have never seen such a crisp mold.  Look at her face.  You can even see the strands of her hair.  I have never seen another one with this amount of detail and this great color.  Usually find them in ivory.  I love this glaze but I don't care for the flat yellow version.  For me it needs to be deep mustard oozing color.
