Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian Flambe Lustre Vase by Richard Joyce

A completely bonkers flambe lustre vase with relief moulded  fish and seaweed - 22cm in height with impressed marks and painted Richard Joyce monogram. This is a wonderful example of Great British eccentricity and technical innovation from the early 20th Century.

The ruby lustre glaze is a development of the scarlet and tangerine uranium galzes  introduced in 1903 by William Burton.
