Description: | On this piece of 'Elanware' pottery, the carefully modelled bats hug the surface of a pot glazed in the colours of the night sky. This unusual pottery was developed by Alan H. Adams, who became director of Adams' Pottery in 1921, taking over from his father Moses J. Adams. The factory produced decorative wares, as well as domestic and sanitary ware, and 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 date period industry natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
