Sir Edmund Elton (b.1846 - d.1920)

Sir Edmund Elton was one of the most extraordinary English potters working in this hugely creative period of English Decorative ceramics. Men and women who pushed the boundaries in terms of design and glaze development to the extreme.

He started experimenting with liquid gold and platinum glaze effects from 1902 and produced metallic, crackle glazed ware which must rank among the most daring and beautiful pottery produced at the time.

A world class act - rock on Sir Elton.
