Description: | The Linthorpe pottery was founded by John Harrison near Middlesbrough in 1879. Their designs were inspired by Japanese and pre-Columbian Peruvian pottery. They experimented to make objects of unusual shapes, decorated with strong, vibrant glazes. On this vase, the rich, chocolate brown colour inside contrasts with the streaked green, white and brown outer surface. Near the base, the white glaze appears to be running up the jar, giving an organic feeling of movement and growth. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | art movement art makers ceramics date period | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
