Moorcroft Flamminian Art Pottery Vase for Liberty C. 1905

1900 - 1920
For Sale by Ritas Bazaar
Description

A Moorcroft vase produced during his period with James Macintyre & Co. and made for Liberty & Co., dating to around 1905. This example belongs to the Flamminian range, one of the earliest art pottery lines associated with Moorcroft’s work.

The vase is finished in a rich red glaze with strong tonal depth, shifting from oxblood to darker pooled areas. The shoulder is decorated with three raised foliate roundels, formed as heart-shaped leaf motifs in relief and set beneath the glaze.

Flamminian wares were introduced in 1905 and are distinguished by their emphasis on glaze and form rather than elaborate painted decoration.

Moorcroft’s early work was retailed by leading firms including Liberty, Harrods and Tiffany & Co., and his reputation was established through both technical innovation and refined aesthetic control.

The base retains a faint “Made for Liberty” mark beneath the glaze, alongside an incised model number and Moorcroft’s signature.

A well-preserved and highly representative example of early Moorcroft art pottery.

An Edwardian Arts and Crafts earthenware baluster vase, produced by Moorcroft for Liberty around 1905 within the Flamminian range. The piece exhibits a rich red monochrome glaze with tonal depth shifting from bright red to darker pooled areas, and a smooth turned ceramic body finished with an embossed roundel medallion featuring raised heart-shaped leaf motifs on the shoulder beneath the glaze, alongside a flared rim and foot. It stands 15.5 cm high by 9.5 cm wide and 9.5 cm deep. Suitable for display in an English Country House interior, this vessel sits well on a sideboard top to hold small stems or stand alone as a decorative object.

FAQs

Designed by William Moorcroft for Liberty & Co. around 1905, Flamminian ware features rich monochrome lead glazes decorated with incised or embossed roundel motifs influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement.

These pieces were crafted from earthenware clay, hand-thrown or moulded, and finished with a distinct high-gloss glaze alongside impressed or tube-lined geometric medallions.

Authentic examples typically feature the impressed mark Moorcroft or Made for Liberty & Co, frequently accompanied by a hand-written William Moorcroft signature or initials on the unglazed base.

Position the vessel as an accent on a sideboard or mantelpiece, contrasting its deep red glaze against neutral backdrops or dark timber surfaces.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid immersion in water or exposure to chemical detergents to protect the original glaze.
