He returned in 1902 and again in 1905. After Della Robbia closed he worked at William Ault’s pottery at Swadlingcote for five years and briefly at the Buckley Potteries in Flintshire. Percy Jacques (1890-1965) joined Della Robbia as a boy before 1905 and later became a master signwriter. His mark is quite rare.. The Della Robbia Pottery, founded by Harold Rathbone and Conrad Dressler. From 1894 until closure in 1906 it produced a range of decorative ceramics in Art Nouveau style and influenced by 15th and 16th century Italian ceramics. Following the principles of the Arts and Crafts movement, pieces were hand thrown and decorated and individual decorators encouraged to mark their work. Typically, designs were set out in sgraffito over white slip and coloured with special fluid colours, formed from pigments mixed with water and gum arabic, which blended with the glaze to give exceptionally bright hues. The marks here indicate sqraffito decoration by an un-named decorator 'ELL', Charles Collis's design; painting by Percy Jacques. reference term-148183 adlib-term-148183 61a0c212-6173-3c83-a41c-70b0710f6087 1900s reference term-108847 adlib-term-108847 f1b73d1e-5fb0-3014-b7fe-1c4be0311f76 literal England England country literal Cheshire Cheshire region Birkenhead terracotta reference term-32002 adlib-term-32002 c957bd65-4f71-3b48-950e-640a22e2087c clay Height cm 30 Width cm 25 reference term-89389 adlib-term-89389 c00f24e8-508b-3432-9eec-6ddac5df8732 jar history note Lent by Rita Smythe, 2018 reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Cf.design in similar style by Charles Collis, and biography.
