This ceramic vase dates from the 1930 Art Deco period and measures 20 cm in diameter by 19 cm in height. The earthenware body has a warm ochre salt glaze with a glossy sheen and is decorated with tube-lined leaf and berry motifs in shades of orange and dark green. The squat bulbous shape has a narrow neck and a flared opening. The smooth finish displays subtle tonal variations across the curved surface. Place this piece on a wooden sideboard in a living room or hallway to display dried stems or stand alone as a decorative accent. It integrates well into an English Country House interior scheme alongside traditional wooden furniture and warm textiles.

FAQs

Salt-glazed production at the Moorcroft factory gained prominence during the late 1920s and 1930s under William Moorcroft. The technique involved introducing sodium chloride into the high-temperature kiln, creating a muted, textured finish that contrasted with the factorys signature high-gloss glazes.

These vessels are crafted from earthenware clay and decorated using slip-trailing or tube-lining to create raised outlines. During firing, common salt vaporises inside the kiln, bonding with the clay surface to produce a durable, slightly pitted glaze texture similar to orange peel.

Authentic pieces feature impressed factory stamps, potter signatures or initials on the base, and distinctive raised tube-lined decoration. The salt glaze finish presents an even, matt or semi-matt tactile surface texture rather than a smooth vitreous gloss.

Position the vase on a timber sideboard, mantlepiece, or shelving unit where natural light can highlight the surface texture. The warm terracotta and ochre tones integrate well alongside organic materials such as unvarnished oak, linen, and woven brass details.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth. If washing is necessary, use lukewarm water with a mild detergent, avoiding complete immersion or abrasive cleaning tools that could damage the slip decoration.
