John Calver Multiple Glaze Trailed Studio Pottery Pedestal Dish
About the Item
A stylish and well-made studio pottery pedestal dish decorated in multiple glazes by renowned Lancashire based potter John Calver and dating from the 20th or early 21st century.
John has been making stoneware pottery in the North Lancashire village of Yealand Redmayne for forty years. The firing process requires a temperature of 1320c, and a smoky/reducing atmosphere in the kiln, which results in rich glaze colours and exciting unpredictable effects on the pots. Most of the pots are classically simple functional shapes, thrown on the wheel, but John occasionally alters the freshly thrown pots to produce one of the signature forms for which he is well known.
This dish stands raised on a narrow-rounded pedestal base with an unglazed foot with a ribbed patterning to the outer dish and with a square shaped shallow wide bowl top with a shaped rim. The bowl is decorated in multiple glazes giving a colorful and very stylish effect of stylized trailing stems and seed pods. Using tones of red, green blue and brown against a matted brown ground with red and white glazes applied around the underside of the dish. The dish has a painted signature mark to the base.
Provenance: from the collection of a private gentleman and originating from the UK art market.
