Product description
Glazed ceramic bowl from the English manufacturer Bretby Art Pottery, a famous factory founded in 1882 by Henry Tooth and William Ault, known for the quality of its glazes and its British Art Pottery productions. This piece features a beautiful organic shape with understated and elegant lines, typical of early 20th-century English decorative production. The nuanced and deep glaze particularly highlights the craftsmanship and the sculptural character of the object. Bretby developed numerous models of bowls, vases, and planters influenced by Art Nouveau and later Art Deco, which are now sought after by collectors. The "Bretby" mark is under the base with the famous sunburst decoration, an iconic signature of the factory. A very beautiful decorative object that can also serve as a centrepiece or a catch-all. Overall good condition with slight signs of age consistent with its antiquity.
