This chicly prismatic work of mid century Atomic design is by British pottery SylvaC (est. 1894 - 1980s). The form of this piece is made up of stylised crystals, arranged in three even tessellated layers and across fours sides into one overall diamond shape. This form of this piece reflects the Atomic Age design influence of the times this piece was crafted in. Atomic Age (atomic science) design became so popular that it became part of architecture, industrial design, commercial design, interior design, and fine arts.
Similar to the stylised form mimicking the structure of crystals, the applied running gloss glaze décor also echoes this. The glaze alternates between a Apple green and Candied pink and as each ridge is 3-dimensional, every angle you turn the planter to, casts a slightly different effect to the overall piece.
This statement piece is stylistically timeless and makes an excellent display piece on its own or functionally as a planter. The combination of the design, colour palette, glaze application and condition makes it a rare find.
CONDITION
Excellent. There are no chips, cracks, or repairs. There is mild use-wear of movement marks on the underside of the base, together with darker hairline crack that does not permeate to the interior. There is gentle crazing all over that is commensurable with the age of the piece. Please refer to photos as they form part of the condition report. The underside of the base is stamped with SylvaC's 'SylvaC Ware MADE IN ENGLAND' that was in use between 1946 to mid-late 1950s. There is a further raised inscription of the model number '4:71'.

A BIT OF HISTORY
SylvaC (with a deliberate capital C at the end) was founded in 1894 by William Copestake and William Shaw, originally named Shaw & Copestake. It would be 1937 till a merging of companies formed under the name of Sylvac. Central to its history were figurines of animals, and rabbits in particular, and the company was known for its relatively inexpensive and widely available tableware and decorative works. SylvaC continued its production until the early 1980s.
