About Harry Allen

The name Harry Allen will be familiar to many Doulton collectors because of his association with so many of Doulton’s most famous lines, from Flambe, Sung, Titanian, figures and of course to the fantastic hand-painted items he produced, of which this is one.

To the trained eye - the hand-painted works produced at Doulton by Harry Allen, Percy Curnock, George White and others - rivalled the work produced by Doulton's only contemporary in this era - those artists who produced hand painted work at Royal Worcester.

Harry was the son of Robert Allen who himself led an art studio at Doulton in Burslem, Harry proved himself a versatile artist but he will be forever associated with his enchanting desert scene images carefully painted onto all manner of items from jugs to plates and everything in between! You will note the familial "tie" on the bottom of this vase, having an RA6309 number to the base - the RA references with respect to Robert Allen for the gilding work.

Whilst not readily available today, with perseverance it is possible to build a collection of this fine quality Desert Scene work. You will find that Harry signed his work either in full or as H. Allen or else as H. A. - depending on the size of the item [as to what space was availed for signing]
