Doulton Burslem Corolian Ware Vase

About the Item

This gourd shaped vase is from Doulton Burslem's Corolian Ware line that was made from 1891-1902 and came from the studio of Robert Allen, a very talented designer and painter. The decoration was achieved using the sgraffito method, where the vase was first coated in the rich cobalt blue ground, then the ground was removed with dry brushes exposing the white body to form the flowers. It has been done most delicately and the raised gilt highlights, another Allen speciality, were then added. The pattern number RA 1755, which was first issued in around 1895, shows that it came from Allen's studio, and the painter's mark TK may stand for T Kelsall, one of Allen's pseudonyms. Impressed into the base is the date for May 1898. This vase stands 152 mm (6 inches) high and has a diameter of 155 mm (6 inches). It has lost a lot of the gilding to the rim, and there is a hairline crack to the base.

  • Ceramic Vase Royal Doulton Chang Ware
    By Royal Doulton
    Located in Atlanta, GA
    A glazed ceramic vase in slender spindle form from the Chang Ware series by Royal Doulton (England, founded 1815) circa 1920-30s. The vase was decorated with thick and dripping glaze in rich mottled polychrome colors. The glaze shows overall irregular crackles, a signature characteristic of Chang Ware. The base is hand-marked "NOKE", Royal Doulton in rectangle and initial HN (for Harry Nixon). Developed by Charles J. Noke (1858-1941), Doulton's Art Director, as part of his experimentation into Chinese flambé glazes during the 1920s. Fired at very high temperatures, they were introduced commercially by Doulton in 1925 in response to popular demand for eastern style ceramics. They were applied primarily by Harry Nixon (1886-1955). The name Chang Ware was used by Doulton in reference to the possibly mythical Song potter, Chang the Elder, although it bears little relationship to Song ceramics.
