A vintage art pottery vase from Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Pottery Company of England, created between 1930 and 1938. The vase features a bold mottled "Orange Vermilion" artistic glaze, originally developed by Abraham Lomax for Pilkington's Lancastrian Pottery. The dynamic glaze ranges from bold red to burnt orange with golden yellow accents in addition to a drip glaze of speckled olive brown. Very good condition, measuring 6.63 in. height x 4 in. diameter (at widest). Full impressed marks on the base include a 2342 model number over the company's first period potting mark/logo, 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
