He joined Wedgwood as Works Manager in 1927, and became joint Managing Director a few years before his retirement in 1963. His main contribution was in the technical modernisation of the factory, but he also created a number of decorative glazes (including the matt glazes used by Keith Murray and John Skeaping) and contributed to the design of successful tableware series. Wilson was inspired by Chinese ceramics, particularly those of the Sung Dynasty potters (960-1279 AD) which favour elegant shapes and rich glazes. His ‘Unique Wares’ feature a wide variety of forms and experimental glazes, sometimes using several glazes on a single pot. His interest seems to have been mainly in design and chemistry and the finished vase or bowl was often thrown and glazed by others. This shape is number 5101, which suggests a late date. reference term-120080 adlib-term-120080 d30af182-08cf-3646-84b8-1649593b6f21 20th Century, third quarter reference term-107700 adlib-term-107700 8f5360fb-b262-3ae9-8942-b81cc0e3e848 Elizabeth II reference term-114582 adlib-term-114582 511cfe35-cd51-335e-b2a9-7683f4b84bd1 literal England England country literal Staffordshire Staffordshire region Barlaston reference term-121303 adlib-term-121303 ec91b069-9e11-397d-92ad-6ab224992074 red earthenware Height cm 16.5 Width cm 14 reference term-89480 adlib-term-89480 f1ea518e-351c-3f42-b2a7-db0f8559fa2c vase history note Unknown before Sir Ivor and Lady Batchelor, St Andrew's, Fife.
