A vintage art pottery vase from Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery Company of England, marked for the period between 1930 and 1938. The shouldered vase is decorated with a dynamic, artistic glaze of matte green with a mottled / curdled textured surface decoration. Although the vessel was created during the Art Deco period, its design and color palette would be right at home in both an Arts and Crafts or Mid-century interior. The substantial vase is in very good, undamaged condition, measuring 10 in. height x 4.5 in. diameter (at widest). Full impressed marks on the base include model number 2555, over the company's first period potting mark/logo, over ROYAL / LANCASTRIAN / MADE IN / ENGLAND.
Pilkington's Tile and Pottery Company was founded in 1891 at Clifton Junction in Manchester. The company employed artists and chemists including John Chambers and William Burton, but also commissioned work from well-known designers of the era including C.F.A. Voysey, Walter Crane, Gordon Forsyth, and Lewis Day. Pilkington's used technical expertise and innovation to develop a range of striking artistic glazes, exhibiting the results at international exhibitions including Paris 1900, Milan 1904, Brussels 1910, and Turin 1911. King George V awarded the company a Royal Warrant in 1913 resulting in a name change to Pilkington’s Royal Lancastrian Pottery Company. The V&A (Victoria and Albert) Museum in London includes a range of Pilkington's art pottery in their collection. less
