Description
A late 19th-century Doulton Lambeth salt-glazed stoneware art pottery vase. The object features a tall, slender form with a bulbous lower body tapering to an elongated neck with a flared rim, all supported by a flared pedestal base. The central horizontal band is decorated with incised and slip-trailed stylized Art Nouveau foliate and berry motifs in shades of olive green and russet brown against a mottled blue-gray ground. The upper and lower portions of the body are finished in a rich, mottled amber and brown glaze, accented with applied sprigged floral rosettes in blue and white. The underside bears an impressed circular mark with the words DOULTON LAMBETH ENGLAND. There is an incised monogram consisting of the letters E and A for artist Elizabeth Adams. The number 1076 is impressed on the base. Several adhesive labels are present: one handwritten in red reads ELIZABETH J. ADAMS, another on aged paper reads ELIZ J ADAMS ATKIN… c. 1880, and a small tape label reads 1883-86.
