The dimpled bottle vasemodel number 24was produced in great numbers, but few have the beautiful and rare crackle glaze of the present vase. It is thought that Linthorpe glazes, particularly the experimental mottled and crackled glazes used by the factory, were the work of the pottery manager, Henry Tooth, while Dresser was responsible for the forms..

It was founded in Chelsea, Massachusetts, by members of the Robertson family, all of whom had honed their skills in the ceramics industry in Britain before coming to this country. One of the most avant-garde of the firms designs is this squat, baluster-shaped vase. Its only decoration is a cut in the lip that has been curled back, paralleling concepts in Japanese pottery and prefiguring the inventive forms that George E. Ohr would soon use.This vase is from the Robert A. Ellison Jr. Collection of American art pottery donated to the Metropolitan Museum in 2017 and 2018. The works in the collection date from the mid-1870s through the 1950s. Together they comprise one of the most comprehensive and important assemblages of this material known.. Vase.

During the course of the 5th and 4th centuries B.C., black vessels (commonly called black-glaze vessels) were made with increasing frequency in both Greece and South Italy. Many of them replicate the shape of metal vessels. Others have detailing that is molded or incised. While the quality of these vessels varies greatly, all would have been less expensive than vessels decorated in other contemporary techniques, for example, in red-figure.. terracotta, Calenian relief ware .

The iridescent sheen on this bottle, an artificially created effect sought after by 19th-century glassmaking innovators such as Louis Comfort Tiffany, was not actually intended by or known to their makers. Because of their association with luxury and precious oils and perfumes, these vessels were often buried with their owners in tombs, the chemical conditions of which, over time, have caused the surfaces to deteriorate, resulting in the shimmering, often opalescent, hues that appeal to the modern eye..

Robertson pursued his craft with fierce devotion and a passion for experimentation. From a family of trained English ceramists, he honed his skills in New Jersey before settling in Massachusetts as one of the founders of Chelsea Keramic Art Works and later, Dedham Pottery. Robertsons lifelong explorations in glazes, particularly their color and texture, make him one of the key figures of American art pottery at the turn of the twentieth century. During the 1880s Robertson increasingly turned his attention to developing new glaze formulas and clay bodies. In the middle of the decade he became obsessed with the highly coveted yet elusive sang-de-boeuf, or oxblood, glaze, a quest that became the hallmark of his later career. This richly colored blood-red glaze is traditionally created from a copper-based formula and fired in a kiln, which when wet straw and other materials are introduced, deprives the atmoFlask; Eastern Mediterranean; 1st century A.D; Glass; 8.3 × 3.9 cm (3 1,4 × 1 9,16 in.)JARRA DE TRAMPA VIDRIADA Y DECORADA CON FLORES DE PASTA BLANCA-S XX ARTE POPUL.

The gift was the first American glass to enter the Museum's collection. Most likely prompted by Louis Comfort Tiffany, the Havemeyers presented their collection of Tiffany Favrile glass to the Museum only three years after Tiffany started making decorative blown-glass vessels. The shapes, colors, and finishes of Tiffany's vases and plaques were inspired by the natural world and ancient glass. This diminutive, scrunched bottle-shaped vase is reminiscent of Japanese forms..

Maker: Pierre-Adrien Dalpayrat (French, Limoges 1844-1910 Limoges); Alphonse Voisin-Delacroix (Swiss, 1857-1893). Date: 1892-93.Emerging from the globular body of this vase is the face of a sleeping woman. Dalpayrat collaborated with the sculptor Voisin-Delacroix on a number of pieces, mainly small models. This large-scale vase is one of their most ambitious works. Voisin-Delacroix was associated with the Symbolist movement, and this piece-with the hidden sleeping face-relates to Symbolist themes associated with dreaming. Dalpayrat's streaky glaze in white, blue, yellow, and copper-red adds to the dreamlike effect. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.Vase, c. 1893. Auguste Delaherche (French, 1857-1940).

Pierpont Morgan, 1917 (17.193.345)Seif Yohei III (1851-1914) was a son of the Maruyama school painter Okada Ryhei (dates unknown). Though he studied painting, he ultimately succeeded his ceramics mentor, Seif Yohei II (1845-1878), in Kyoto. He distinguished himself as a remarkable porcelain artist, taking Qing dynasty Chinese wares as his inspiration. He experimented widely with new glazing techniques. In 1893, he became the first ceramicist to be appointed as an Imperial Household Artist under a system introduced by the Japanese government in 1890. He produced many works for use in Chinese-style tea gatherings called sencha. Single Stem Vase, 1914-46. Seifū Yohei IV (Japanese, 1872-1951).
