William Moorcroft Pomegranate Vase – M55 Shape (c. 1910s–1920s)

A beautiful example of early William Moorcroft craftsmanship, this small Pomegranate design vase embodies the timeless charm of Moorcroft’s celebrated Burslem period. Measuring approximately 6.5cm in height and 8cm in width, the vase is modelled in the distinctive M55 shape, perfectly proportioned for display.

The decoration features four richly painted pomegranates, evenly spaced around the rounded body, each enhanced with deep green foliage and clusters of blue-purple berries that provide a striking contrast. The design is crowned with a warm ochre glaze running up to and including the rim—an unmistakable hallmark of Moorcroft’s early Burslem output.

To the base, the vase bears a full William Moorcroft signature in green, together with impressed marks reading Moorcroft, Burslem, M55. The piece remains in excellent, unrestored condition, showing only the fine glaze crazing typical of early Moorcroft pottery, with no damage or repairs.

A lovely, well-balanced example of William Moorcroft’s iconic Pomegranate design, this vase would make a fine addition to any Moorcroft collection or serve as a statement piece in its own right.
