William Moorcroft “Claremont” Vase – Shape M55, c.1925
A vibrant and highly desirable example of one of Moorcroft’s most celebrated patternsThis exquisite M55-shaped William Moorcroft vase, dating to the mid-1920s, showcases the iconic Claremont pattern—one of the most sought-after designs in the Moorcroft repertoire.
Encircling the body are ten finely tubelined toadstools, rendered in vivid and varied tones: four rich reds, four warm yellows, and two deep, velvety blues. Each cap is detailed with Claremont’s hallmark speckled surface and beautifully defined gill undersides—an artistic hallmark that makes this pattern so visually captivating. The base colour merges lush green and inky blue glazes, creating a moody, woodland atmosphere that complements the naturalistic subject matter.
To the underside, the vase bears the impressed marks “Moorcroft” and “Made in England”, along with the model number “M55”, confirming its authenticity and period origin.
A small, invisible professional restoration has been carried out to the top rim, precisely between a large yellow and large red toadstool. The restoration is of a high standard, with only a subtle uniformity of colour betraying the repaired area under close inspection. Importantly, the most visually dominant red toadstool sits on the opposite, untouched side, making this piece an outstanding display example.
Compact in scale but striking in design, this Claremont vase is a true collector’s gem—a perfect representation of Moorcroft’s artistry during the golden period of British Art Pottery.
Dimensions: Height: 7cm; Width 8cm

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.
