Pilkingtons Vermilion Glaze Bowl circa 1930

About the Item

This brilliant orange bowl, created by Pilkingtons circa 1930 is dripping with the company's vermilion glaze. It's a fine example of Pilkington’s studio art pottery. Pilkington’s vermilion glaze range was created around 1930, near the end of the factory’s art pottery production. Pilkington’s vermilion wares feature a deep orange glaze and are faintly flecked with golden speckling which can be seen if the light catches them just right. Darker variations in the glaze were created by allowing crystals of applied metal oxides to develop before firing; once fired, this combustible material produced the darker areas. While the years of the Arts & Crafts movement were long in the past, this circa 1930 bowl draws on that aesthetic with its clean, unornamented lines and simplicity of materials. At the same time, however, we can see that the design speaks to a style which was just on the horizon: the streamlined modernism of the 1930s. Dimensions: 9 in. Dm x 3 1/4 in. H (22.9 cm Dm x 8.3 cm H) Condition: Excellent. Very light scratching to the well of the bowl. Provenance: The Fortunoff Collection.
