Rare & Handsome Antique Art Deco Wardle Art Pottery Hexangonal Planter, 1924. This stylish plater came from the kilns of Wardle, a Staffordshire pottery works founded by William Wardle in the mid-nineteenth century. The business grew over the next 25 years, introducing new techniques and expanding into export. The company was taken over by J A Robinson & Sons Ltd in 1908 and renamed Wardle Art Pottery. It later amalgamated with Cauldon Potteries but finally ceased trading in 1935. The art pottery produced by Wardle has now become highly sort after by collectors. This handsome Art Deco planter is hexagonal in shape and raised on small moulded feet at each corner. Each of the six sides a frame device in shallow relief, the rim has a subtle flare reaching outwards. It features a vibrant majolica drip glaze to the outside using rich tones of rose, green, cobalt and golden caramel which is used to stunning effect creating a variegated colour palette. The interior features the lovely golden caramel glaze. The planter is fully marked on the glaze washed base. The planter measures approx. 11.3cms tall by 20.5cm the widest point. The Registered Design number 704297 dates the planter to 1924. In good used antique condition with some crazing to the glaze and there are three hairline cracks visible on the interior wall, one is almost invisible outside and the other two are not so may be only superficial in the glaze only. A stunning and usable collectable piece of art pottery. Please see pictures for more details. Recycled packaging is used as much as possible. I will pack and weigh the items together and get the best possible price that I can, sometimes weight or value might dictate that I send multiple parcels to get a better value for you.
