Allows no monotony to break its charm.

As changing as the sea, from which it derives its name, and from which, like an opalesque and dainty shell, it seems to have caught every morning hue of irridescence when the sunbeam kissed the spray, Rozane Mara is one of the most decorative as well as one of the most pleasing results yet obtained at the Roseville Potteries.

Studying to obtain the exquisite rainbow tints seen in rarest pieces of old Italian glass, our artist chemist evolved this oddity. The surface, in texture much resembling the lining of the ocean's rarest shells, is somewhat irreg- ular, presenting surfaces most favorable for catching every ray of light, throwing it back in all lustrous shades imaginable. With all this play of colors, Rozane Mara is subdued and in good taste, the prevailing tones running under and through the irridescense being odd reds, varying from pale rose tints to the deepest magentas, the soft tones of gray and opal suggesting the pearly surface of a shell, being always present.

As an oddity, Rozane Mara is not only rare and admirable, but possesses qualities of real artistic merit. It will be found especially useful in rooms where elaborate decorations are desired, as it is highly ornamental, while m rooms of more simple style it often adds just the finish needed to give the room a touch of elegance.
