A vintage Moorcroft shallow bowl in the Wisteria design by William Moorcroft c1920's.
The diameter of the bowl is 183mm (7.2”) and the height 31mm (1.2”).
The base of the bowl has William Moorcroft's initials and impressed MOORCROFT and MADE IN ENGLAND backstamps.
In assessing the age of this bowl the base marks have been compared against those shown in one of the reference books recommended by by Moorcroft and indicate a date range c1918 to 1929. The same reference book shows design matches for items 1920 to c1925.
The bowl is clearly of vintage age and possibly antique (based on the 100 year age definition).
In excellent overall condition with only very faint age related crazing, mainly on the base.
An attractive item which should prove a worthy addition to many a collection of vintage or even antique Moorcroft pottery.
This Moorcroft Wisteria design bowl is available online only however if visiting the Antiques Centre in York please visit Cabinet 138 situated on the Lower Ground Floor to view other examples of Moorcroft Pottery from early vintage to more modern pieces.
