Doulton Stoneware

Offered for sale is this very early 1871-1872 gourd vase by the famous Arthur Barlow. Arthur was brother to the famous Hannah Barlow. Extremely disabled from an accident as a child, Arthur Barlow found his purpose and explored his gifts at Doulton Lambeth. He became one of the sought after artists representing often the best of the early 1870s work. He died young in 1877, so his work is rare.

For sale for the pair, are these beautifully executed Foliate vases, demonstrating the very best of Doulton Lambeth Arts & Crafts as the classical period moved towards Art Nouveau. By Emily E. Stormer, one of my favourite Lambeth artists, she has not held back in the execution of these vases.

Offered in excellent original condition, the vases are both clearly signed with Emily Stormer’s initials, the assistant marks and the round “cog” and “England”, dating these vases to the 1890s. Buy the pair as a real statement. You will not be disappointed.
