Clarice Cliff: The Potter.
Clarice Cliff was born in Tunstall, England in 1899 and grew up in the Staffordshire pottery district. She began work at 13 years of age and by 1916 was a studio painter at Wilkinson Royal Staffordshire Pottery in Burslem, England.
In 1920, Wilkinson took over the nearby Newport Pottery which included a large amount of unsold plain white pottery. By 1926-27, Cliff had begun to decorate this unsold white ware with bright hand brushed paint in Art Deco designs. The designs were so successful that an entire new line was put into production in 1928. New Art Deco ceramic shapes were added in 1929. In the late 1930's changing public tastes limited production and WW II ended it altogether. Some production was resumed after the War and continued off and on until 1963.
Interest in Cliff's work was renewed with an exhibit of her works in England at both the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Brighton Museum in 1972. Later, in the same year, Cliff died and prices of her pottery began rising. In 1982, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York placed a small collection on view.
Condition: Very Good with very minor usage marks on the bowl, the pattern detail is in very good condition throughout. No chips or cracks and no crazing on the glaze, a well looked after piece.
