This striking work of mid-century Modernist design is by British pottery SylvaC (est. 1894 - 1980s). The simple elevated planter vase form is both multifunctional and an excellent canvas for the vivid glaze.

The hypnotic effervescent running lava glaze is a palette of Indigo and Cobalt blue intermingling with tones of Tangerine orange and Deep Grapefruit. Not only is the glaze energetic in colour but there is also an iridescence to it.

This statement piece makes an excellent display piece on its own or functionally as a planter.

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.
