Pair Shelley Lustreware Vases 1920s
We are pleased to offer for sale this unusual pair of Shelley Lustreware vases, from a range of Lustreware introduced in the 1920s by Walter Slater. This range included floating flower bowls, spill vases, ginger jars, antique clocks etc., and were usually decorated with fish, butterflies, flowers etc., these usually being signed on the base by Walter Slater. We have found several examples of these decorated pieces on the internet, but only one other piece of Lustreware with no decoration, as these, which are unsigned. These are part of a small collection that we have acquired and will be listing shortly.
Walter Slater joined Shelley as Art Director in 1905, after experience at Minton and Doulton. He succeeded Frederick Rhead, the father of Charlotte Rhead. He retired in 1937.
The vases have a broad base with a nipped in waist, tapering up to a slightly flared rim. The colour is an electric or peacock blue fading up to a pale sea green, with an overlying lustre, like petrol on water. Both vases bear the Shelley shield and Made in England.
Diameter of base: 4 1/8" 10.45cm
Max. width: 4 1/4" - 10.8cm
Height: 8 1/2" - 21.55cm
Condition: Very good with no chips, cracks or damage.
