This Belleek vase was first shown in the 1928 Belleek sales catalogue where the retail price was set at 18 shillings! It got its name from an embossed ribbon pattern around the neck of the vase, and it became one of the most popular flowered pieces ever made by Belleek. In 1987 the ribbon vase was retired, but it makes a welcome return as part of the 2009 archive collection.
