Earthenware with gold and ruby lustre glazes

William Mycock’s gold and ruby lustre vase is emblematic of the high-quality lustrewares being produced by Pilkingtons Royal Lancastrian Pottery in the early 20th century. Mycock, along with Gordon Forsyth and Richard Joyce, produced stunning lustres for the firm that were eagerly received by the public. Created in the dawn of the Art Deco style, this vase also exhibits a Gothic Revival aesthetic which brings to mind notions of a romanticized medieval past.
