Description: | On this box, shaped like an elephant, the rider forms the handle on the rectangular lid. It was made by Moses J. Adams, who began to make 'Adamesk' art wares in 1904 at his pottery in Scotswood, Newcastle. The production of decorative vases, bowls and models was continued by his son Alan H. Adams, who became director in 1921, and the firm later changed its name to Adamsez Ltd. Their art pottery was made from local fireclay and decorated with coloured leadless glazes developed by A.B. Searle. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | animals art designers made in the North East makers ceramics men date period industry natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
