English Cranston Art Pottery Vase Circa 1910

1900 - 1920
Description

This impressive and decorative vase was made at the Cranston Pottery Works, and this decorative pattern is called Tucan. It has a large onion-like bulbous body which flows into a tall, slender neck. The heavy glazed surfaces are produced in translucent shades of brown, blue and green which have been thickly applied and allowed to run and blend with each other as they were fired, giving the unusual mottled effect which is very tactile. In distinctive contrast, the neck has been decorated with a stylish tube lined collar of decoration which is in the form of stylised grapes and leaves, which are coloured and glazed in stronger tones, giving as a bold contrast.

After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed.

This English Cranston art pottery vase originates from circa 1910 during the Art Nouveau period. Formed from earthenware, the piece comprises a large onion-like bulbous body that flows into a tall, slender cylindrical neck and an open circular rim. The heavy glazed surfaces display translucent shades of mottled yellow, brown, blue, and green thickly applied and allowed to run and blend during firing. Around the upper neck, a tube-lined collar of decoration takes the form of stylised grapes and leaves coloured in stronger tones for contrast. The dimensions of the item are 29.5 cm high, 21 cm wide, and 21 cm deep. In a contemporary home, this decorative vase functions as an eye-catching display piece positioned on a mantelpiece, side table, or display shelf within an English country house interior.

Early 20th-century English art pottery often combines Arts and Crafts design principles with Art Nouveau stylised motifs, featuring hand-applied glazes, tubelined ornamentation, and organic forms produced by manufactories across Staffordshire and Lancashire.

Vases from this era typically feature earthenware clay bodies covered with reactive, mottled, or slip-decorated glazes applied using hand-dipping, sponging, or brushing techniques.

Authentic pieces generally feature characteristic mottled or speckled glaze finishes, stylised floral or botanical tube-lined slip designs, and impressed maker marks or painter ciphers on the unglazed base.

Positioning the vase on a wooden sideboard or mantelpiece allows the natural glaze palette and organic silhouette to provide subtle textural contrast within contemporary or traditional spaces.

Dust gently with a soft cloth or wipe clean using tepid water and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals, abrasive sponges, or prolonged immersion in water to safeguard historical glazes.
