Fazackerley Delft Charger Hand Painted Liverpool Polychrome Mid 18th Century

About the Item

This gorgeous Delft charger was hand painted in Liverpool, England, in the mid-18th century, circa 1760. The style of decoration we call Fazackerley is probably the most beautiful in all English delftware. Starting about 1750 in Liverpool, a complete range of polychrome colors was used to decorate delftware like this. This charger is decorated with two flowers, a blue and a yellow, with green leaves in the center. The exquisite colors have been carefully defined, including French blue, sage green, lemon yellow, and brown. Fazackerley colors are high-temperature fired, including cobalt blue, mixed green, manganese purple/brown, and a clear yellow from antimony. With this limited range of colors, Fazackerley delftware creates a beautiful impression of luxurious enamel decoration. Dimensions: 13" diameter x 1.5" height Condition: Excellent with small edge chips invisibly restored Price: $1,460 Background of Fazackerley: Painted in brilliant blue, green, yellow, and dark purple or brown, the name Fazackerley has been given to this type of Liverpool decoration since a mug painted in these colors and inscribed "t.F.1757" is said to have been made at the pot works at Shaw's Brow and presented to Mr. Thomas Fazackerley by a Liverpool potter. Fazackerley decorated plates have been found at Colonial Williamsburg. For a beautiful color image, see British Delft at Williamsburg by John C. Austin pg. 50 For additional information on Fazakerley Delft, see "English Delftware in the Bristol Collection" by Frank Briton and "Fair as China Dishes English Delftware" by Michael Archer and Brian Morgan.
