PHOENIX WARE ART DECO STAFFORDSHIRE LARGE FRUIT BOWL FLAMBEAU PATTERN C.1926-39
"A stunning example of art deco Staffordshire ceramics that vividly typifies all that is best about these jazz age pieces. This is without doubt one of the most successful of the Phoenix Ware art deco designs. The Flambeau pattern of hand applied bright enamel tongues of flame on a relief moulded bowl shape known as Leaf is really cool! A great decorative centrepiece and a welcome addition to your collection of best art deco antiques and collectibles." Antiques Expert Hamilton Bear.
 
References: Thomas Forester and Sons Ltd. known affectionately by art deco collectors as "T.F. & S.", made this piece at Phoenix Works, Longton, Staffordshire, England.
Dimensions: width 200 mm max. height 95 mm max.
Condition: In excellent display condition. There are no chips or cracks or restoration to pottery. Typical minor crazing with associated light discolouring to inside of bowl. At some point small patches of enamel flaking to heavily applied on glaze decoration have been touched-in. Nevertheless one of the best surviving examples of this pattern we have seen.
