Modernist Turquoise and Green Ceramic Vase by Beswick, England c. 1950s
About the Item
This mid-century Beswick ceramic vase revisits a 1930s Art Deco design by Mr. Symcox, reissued in the 1950s by the renowned English pottery firm. Its urn-like modernist silhouette is both substantial and restrained, with a rounded body subtly detailed by concentric ribbing near the neck—an understated gesture that introduces texture without disrupting the form’s simplicity.
The glaze is a standout: a layered, organic drip in turquoise and moss green, flowing across the matte surface to create a soft, almost painterly diffusion of light and colour. This finish draws attention to the piece’s sculptural quality while maintaining a quiet, contemplative presence.
Stamped Beswick England and numbered 1552 on the base, the vase measures 21 cm in height and 13 cm in diameter. It remains in very good vintage condition, offering a thoughtful intersection of Art Deco elegance and post-war British ceramic craftsmanship.
