• bazaa_backup.original_description:

  A highly collectible Beswick art pottery vase from the post-war modernist period, distinguished by its sculptural handled form and expressive hand-applied glaze.

  This example features a painterly composition of cobalt and turquoise blues to the front, with contrasting green tones to the reverse, softened by yellow and blush accents around the body and base. The angular twin handles and gently waisted profile are characteristic of Beswick’s mid-century experimentation with form, bridging functional pottery and decorative art.

  The base bears the Beswick England script mark with shape number 180, confirming this as a documented art pottery form rather than a later decorative revival. Pieces of this type were produced in limited quantities and are increasingly sought after by collectors of British studio and factory art pottery.

  A strong standalone object, equally suited to display empty or styled with simple branches to highlight the sculptural silhouette.
