Rare Achille Van de Voorde’Flemish Lace Worker’ Glazed Pottery Figurine c1920. Featuring a female lace worker folk figure in traditional costume working at a bench and glazed in deep blue, cream and treacle colours.

Van de Voorde’s pottery was founded in 1913 in Bruges. He graduated as a primus from both the Bruges and Antwerp Art Academy. In Bruges he was taught by Gustaaf Pickery, among others, in whose sculpture studio he worked for a few years. He specialized primarily in the production of figurative pottery and from 1908 he brought glazed pottery figures to the market, baked in the Bruges pottery “Den Uil” by Joseph Van Iseghem. The world wars had a major impact on their company, which unfortunately was closed in the late 1930s at the time of the European unrest in the Second World War. They are known for 114 documented figures with great realism, beautiful sculptures and details, as well as their characteristic deep rich blue glaze.
