Drip glaze of vivid blues and tonal greens on a deep brown and russet body. Abstract aztec-inspired design front and back. Impressed Chr. Dresser signature and Linthorpe marks. Design number 337. The vase is 20.5 cm in height.
This listing is for one of a pair of vases.
This vase is in overall very good condition commensurate with age. No crazing or cracks. There is an invisible professionally restored (<1cm) chip to the foot. Please see further images on our website as these form an important part of the description.
In 1879 John Harrison (a local businessman) established Linthorpe Pottery in conjunction with Christopher Dresser, one of the most influential designers of the late 19th century. Dresser acted as artistic director at the Pottery until 1982 and continued to submit designs whilst the Pottery remained in production. Dresser recommended Henry Tooth, an artist from Buckinghamshire working at that time on the Isle of Wight, as pottery manager. Henry Tooth, with no prior experience of clay or pottery left Ryde for Linthorpe, spending time at the T.G. Green pottery in Church Gresley, Derbyshire to get a foundation in ceramics. Henry Tooth had brought Richard Patey with him from the Isle of Wight, who managed the pottery after he left in 1882 (to establish to Bretby Pottery in partnership with William Ault). Linthorpe Pottery was only in existence between 1879 and 1889. Viewing welcomed - please contact us in advance.
