About the Item

Norman Stuart Clarke (b.1944): Seascape, wave vase, 1997 "I use bold, powerful colors; it's a consuming interest of mine, an obsession, placing different hues together on a piece, watching them react optically. They throb and dance to a tune shared only with the beholder." - One of Britain's leading glass artists, Clarke’s influence and reputation as a glass painter is unsurpassed - Outstanding hand blown, ovoid, glass vase from Clarke’s signature wave series. - Hand blown when Clarke had a studio near St Ives showing his painterly approach, understanding of and sensitivity to the sea depicting the full curl of rolling waves around the lower half of the vase and a semi-transparent purple sunset or dawn above. - The artist is Internationally collected by galleries & collectors - The base is signed by the artist and dated ‘97’. Measures: Diameter 14cm, 5 ½ inches Height 13.5cm, 5 ¼ inches.

Vase Cobridge Stoneware Cathedral Blue Samantha Johnson Architectural
Located in BUNGAY, SUFFOLK
A Cobridge stoneware cylindrical Cathedral pattern vase, designed by Samantha Johnson, copyright 2000. - The striking pillars and arches create spaciousness in the design. - The different tones of blue capture the texture and coolness of the stone interiors of these magnificent centres of worship, learning, art and community. - Rare pattern illustrating medieval architecture in a contemporary context The underside bears the Cobridge Stoneware stamp and is marked S Johnson, J.S. c.o.o. and S.J. c.c.c. 2000. Measures: Height 20.7cm Diameter (top) 8.5cm Diameter (base) 9cm Cobridge Stoneware was a short-lived pottery company born out of the fascination of the head of one of the leading potteries for a process that died with its inventor early in the 20th century. Cobridge Stoneware was in business 1998–2005. It was an Associate company of Moorcroft Pottery. The consequence of the business closing in down 2005. Is that the vases are now becoming very rare and demanding premium prices on the secondary market. Hugh Edwards, owner of Moorcroft, was keen to develop the ideas of William Howson Taylor - the man behind the closely guarded secrets of Ruskin Pottery. A new company and name was needed for the new range - Moorcroft is known and recognized universally by its distinctive appearance. Cobridge, an area of The Potteries, was featured in the Industrial Landscapes that were planned to furnish some of the designs for the new range. Its skyline was dominated in earlier years by bottle kilns, now mainly demolished, and Cobridge was chosen as the new name. The Cobridge Pottery was set up in a new imposing building a couple of hundred yards from the Moorcroft pottery and the official opening was in September 1998. The building was designed with future needs in mind. Only the outer walls are load-bearing, and the inner walls are built from blocks which can, if the need arises, be knocked down and re-built in another place. All the pieces were produced and hand painted here. The designs for Cobridge Stoneware Pottery vases were designed by well known ceramic designers. Many were also designing for Moorcroft Pottery. These designers include Philip Gibson, Kerry Goodwin, Nicola Slaney and Angela Davenport. Also Anita Harris...
