Ruskin Arts & Crafts Fine Ochre & Blue Lustre Glazed Vase

About the Item

A very finely potted Ruskin Arts & Crafts art pottery miniature vase decorated with ochre and blue lustre glazes by renowned potter William Howson Taylor (British, 1876 – 1935) dated 1924. Ruskin were renowned for their brightly glazed pottery using an array of different glazing methods some based on secret formula’s which were derived from earlier Chinese wares. Ruskin remains both highly regarded and collected worldwide and due to the very fine nature of some of the smaller pieces finding fine examples in good condition is becoming harder. The pottery closed in 1935. The vase is part of a private collection of Arts and Crafts influenced pottery amassed in the mid 1980’s. The collection originates from a period where monochrome glazes were used to focus more on the shape and design of the pieces. The collection comprises of various notable and important British makers of the period. The vase is thinly potted wide standing on a wide round foot with a skirted lower rim and tall cylindrical shaped body with a flared top rim. The vase is decorated in exquisite, mottled ochre and blue lustre glazes which have gathered around the skirted foot rim. The base of the vase is clearly impressed RUSKIN ENGLAND and is dated 1924. Provenance: The David Sheard Collection and acquired around the mid 1980’s. Subsequently acquired in the UK Art Market. In good condition with light wear associated with age and use.

    By Adelaide Alsop Robineau
    Located in Chicago, US
    “A Robineau vase is a true work of art, unique in conception and perfect in execution, for every piece that left this studio was a labor of love.” – Ethel Brand Wise, The American Magazine of Art, 1929 Adelaide Alsop Robineau was a pioneer in American studio ceramics and excelled as an innovator in pottery both technically and aesthetically. As a young woman of high society in the late Victorian era, she gained early accolades as a skilled watercolorist and china painter and taught for a time at St. Mary’s Hall in Minnesota. In 1899, she married Samuel E. Robineau, a French gentleman and collector of Chinese ceramics. He was deeply intrigued by her talent and steadfastly supported and encouraged her throughout her career. The couple collaborated to produce a popular and influential monthly journal together, Keramic Studio, and went on to build a studio on their property in Syracuse, New York, which they named Four Winds. Robineau would also go on to teach for many years at Syracuse University while creating her own work and raising three children. Early in her career, she studied at Alfred University under Charles Binns, who is widely considered to be the progenitor of contemporary studio ceramics in America. His program established a shift in the craft of ceramics as an academic pursuit, rather than one of apprenticeship. Pottery throwers and the artists who decorated the wares traditionally inhabited separate roles in ceramic manufacture, a practice common in Europe. Binns’ philosophy merged the two, such that the potter had total agency of the final product. This marked a historic divergence in the creation of art pottery – one that Adelaide Robineau...
