About the Item

A Daisy Makeig-Jones Fairyland Lustre bowl made circa 1925, showing the Poplar Trees pattern on the exterior and the Woodland Bridge pattern on the interior, with the central interior medallion showing the Mermaid motif. The interior Woodland Bridge pattern features the artist's MJ monogram, a rare signature which was soon removed from the pattern design. Daisy Makeig-Jones is perhaps best known for her Fairyland Lustre wares, lavishly-decorated pieces which depicted fantastical scenes of her own imagination. Technically difficult to produce, these exquisite works of art were afforded by the wealthy and appreciated by all. Wedgwood Fairyland Lustres’ whimsical, and often absurd scenes, provided an escape for a consumer class in the throes of World War I. Upon closer inspection of this bowl in the ‘Poplar Trees’’ pattern, it is easy to understand how one can find themself lost in Makeig-Jones’s designs. Dimensions: 11 in. Dm x 5 3/4 in. H Condition: Excellent, with minor rubbing to gilding in bowl center. Gilded “MJ” monogram signature worn.
