EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Vase from Burmantofts Pottery, dating back to the late 19th century. Standing at a height of 17.5 cm, this ceramic masterpiece is housed in Leeds Museums and Galleries (Leeds Art Gallery) in the United Kingdom. Burmantofts Pottery, named after the district it originated from in Leeds, was primarily known for manufacturing ceramic pipes and construction materials. However, during its expansion phase in 1879, the company ventured into producing decorative bricks and tiles with vibrant orange or buff-colored architectural terracotta glaze. The vase itself exhibits an exquisite design with a sunburst motif adorning its surface. The bold and bright red color adds a touch of vibrancy to any space it graces. Its ovoid shape and frilled rim give it an elegant yet contemporary appeal. Impressed by its craftsmanship, one cannot help but admire the intricate details on this glazed vessel. The dimpled pattern adds depth and texture to its overall appearance while showcasing the expertise of English pottery makers. This print not only captures the beauty of this Burmantofts Pottery creation but also serves as a testament to British artistry during that era. It is truly a remarkable piece that exemplifies both artistic flair and technical skill within ceramics.
