They designed, made and decorated their own ornamental salt-glazed stoneware, originally using facilities at C.J.C.Bailey’s Fulham Pottery and, briefly, at Shepherd’s Bush. In 1877, they opened their own pottery at Southall, Middlesex, and by 1882 were producing some 5,000 pieces a year. Wallace had originally trained as a sculptor, exhibiting his work at the Royal Academy and elsewhere from c.1863. His younger brothers had learned their skills at Doulton’s, Walter as a thrower and chemist, Edwin as a decorator. Modelled work is generally attributed to Wallace, but otherwise it is thought that the three learned from each other, exchanging skills and sharing roles. A fourth brother, Charles (1846-1910), sold the products – known as ‘Martin-ware’ – from a shop at Brownlow Street, London. This is one of a number of examples of Martin Brothers’ work decorated with slip painted over the whole surface and an incised pattern filled with clay slip. These techniques, which require the decorator and potter to work closely together, and the naturalistic design which follows and accentuates the form of the vase, suggest the influence of Japanese pottery. reference term-109008 adlib-term-109008 841b18bd-944d-3c9c-8d39-bdaabbcc28e1 20th Century, Early reference term-15214 adlib-term-15214 744af2c4-a2f2-37ad-bbf4-2cd00e91ed9b Victorian reference term-113588 adlib-term-113588 0692b7b4-b464-3e1d-9c27-b254afe273b1 literal England England country Southall reference term-37110 adlib-term-37110 ef92f1a8-1400-3fa3-863f-e099781ea442 salt-glaze reference term-42825 adlib-term-42825 858e5d17-b554-33d6-936f-25b16f72f39d stoneware Diameter cm 11.0 Diameter in 4.5 Height cm 23.5 Height in 9.25 reference media-41907 adlib-media-41907 8387c563-4913-3142-8fc0-66b74a8859e6 jpeg aa/aa11/C_29_1972_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583021793 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/mid_C_29_1972_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742583021793 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/C_29_1972_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583021793 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/preview_C_29_1972_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742583021793 1 image 0 media image reference media-41908 adlib-media-41908 6eb4253d-0f99-36ec-96eb-d2e31eda9096 jpeg aa/aa11/C_29_1972_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583057375 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/mid_C_29_1972_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742583057375 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/C_29_1972_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583057375 1 image jpeg aa/aa11/preview_C_29_1972_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742583057375 1 image 1 media image reference term-89480 adlib-term-89480 f1ea518e-351c-3f42-b2a7-db0f8559fa2c vase history note Bequest of Thomas Knox-Shaw, former Master of Sidney Sussex College.
