This 1930s Art Deco set comprises three ceramic vases made by Shorter and Sons, featuring one central yellow vase flanked by two smaller turquoise vessels. The earthenware items display horizontal ribbed turning across their bulbous bodies alongside a mottled glaze finish. The central piece includes stacked ball handles on each side, while the pair of smaller vases incorporates geometric side handles wrapping over their rims. Each vase measures up to 20 cm in height. Suitable for display in a modern living space, these decorative vessels work well arranged together upon a sideboard top or mantelpiece. They bring period character to a tabletop setting, offering practical utility for holding small floral arrangements or standing alone as sculptural ornaments within an interior scheme.

FAQs

During the 1930s, British Art Deco ceramics featured angular or stepped forms, ribbed textures, and stylized decorative accents inspired by modernist architecture. Potteries introduced sprayed, matte, and mottled glazes in pastel and earth tones to suit contemporary domestic interiors.

These decorative items were crafted from earthenware clay using slip-casting or press-moulding techniques. The surfaces were finished with lead or feldspathic glazes, often applied in multiple blended tones to produce mottled effects across horizontal ribbing.

Authentic pieces generally display impressed or backstamped maker marks on the underside along with moulded shape numbers. The presence of characteristic 1930s features, such as geometric handles, ribbed mouldings, and hand-finished glaze variations, helps confirm period production.

Group pottery in odd-numbered clusters on sideboards, mantelpieces, or open shelving to create visual balance. Pair textured ceramic vessels with neutral backgrounds, metallic accents, or dark wood surfaces to accentuate their structural silhouettes and colour contrast.

Clean earthenware vessels using warm water and a mild detergent with a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive pads or harsh chemicals. Ensure items are completely dry before display, and avoid submerging pieces with micro-crazing in water for extended periods.
