Description

1920’s CARLTON WARE FLOWER BOWL WITH REPOUSSE PEWTER OVERLAYS.

This is a really super bowl, and with the pewter overlays, is not one that is seen very often.

A large floating flower bowl, standing 8cm high, 33cm long and 22cm wide, it is glazed in a lustrous purple iridescent glaze, which Carlton Ware called ‘Lustrine’.

On all four sides are repousse pewter overlays, cut in the shape of leaves and berries - the grey of the pewter really sits well with the purple lustre. It is thought that Carlton Ware may have supplied pewter blanks to establishments such as the Glasgow School of Art for these overlays to be made, and they are certainly created in the arts and crafts style.

The bowl is in excellent ‘used’ condition, commensurate with its age, but with no chips or cracks, and would be a fantastic addition to any collection, or a very worthy centre piece.

Please do not hesitate to contact me should you like any more images or have any further questions.

FAQs

Carlton Ware refers to ceramics produced by Wiltshaw and Robinson in Stoke-on-Trent, England, beginning in the late 19th century and gaining immense popularity for its lustre wares and art deco designs during the 1920s and 1930s.

These items typically consist of earthenware ceramics finished with iridescent lustre glazes, often embellished with applied metal overlays such as repousse pewter or silver plate to create high-contrast decorative motifs.

Authentic pieces usually feature manufacturer backstamps or registration numbers on the base, characteristic lustre finishes that display a rainbow sheen, and precise hand-finished metalwork applied over the glaze.

Lustreware bowls function well as reflective focal points on plain surfaces, contrasting against minimalist backdrops to highlight their metallic overlays and iridescent colours.

Clean these items gently with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth, avoiding abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or submersion in water to protect both the delicate lustre glaze and the metal overlay.
