What is the most common Moorcroft vase pattern?

Pomegranate, by a clear margin. It accounts for more titles than any other pattern on Sellingantiques, fruit and foliage on a dark ground, sometimes described as seeded or open seeded. Pansy and leaf-and-berries come next, then orchid, anemone, poppy and cornflower, each on a similar footing to one another.

Which period do most of these vases come from?

The 1910s. Of the listings carrying a clean year, the 1910s account for more than the 1920s and 1930s combined. The dated field as a whole runs from 1890 to 1960, but only two listings fall in the 1890s and exactly one in the 1960s. Those decade buckets are the dealer's estimate rather than a date read off a mark.

Are Macintyre-period Moorcroft vases different?

They are the earliest wares, made while Moorcroft ran the art pottery department of a larger earthenware firm before the independent factory of 1913. This is where Florian, Aurelian and Flamminian wares sit, along with the early panelled poppy and cornflower forms. Florian is also written Florinware or Florianware in titles. They make up roughly a tenth to a sixth of what comes to market.

How often do flambé Moorcroft vases appear?

About one in six titles names a flambé glaze, the reduction-fired finish that gives deep red and streaked tones. They concentrate in the 1920s to 1940s titles. Berries under flambé is a recurring combination, and fish or fishes under flambé appears only four times across the archive, all four near the top of the range.

Do Moorcroft vases come in pairs?

Rarely. Pairs account for a small fraction of titles, so the single vase is what you will normally meet. Handles are also unusual. Twin-handled turns up in around twenty titles, while a three-handled and a four-handled example each appear once.

Why is Liberty mentioned in some Moorcroft listings?

Moorcroft wares were retailed through Liberty, and around six in a hundred titles carry the association. Flamminian, Hazeldene, Claremont and Tudor Rose examples come up that way, as do pewter-mounted forms. Liberty-linked pieces tend to cluster in the upper half of the sampled range.
