About the Item
An original Art Deco ceramic vase by Thomas Forester
Sons, crafted in Staffordshire, England during the early 1930s. This distinctive piece belongs to the firm’s ‘Athens’ collection—a short-run series now highly regarded among collectors of British ceramics and Art Deco pottery.
The vase is defined by its elongated tubular profile, flaring subtly to form a softly bulging centre. Its surface is decorated with rows of acanthus leaves in pale blue relief, curling rhythmically around the body. The crisp blue detailing sits against a backdrop of deep russet and ochre glazes, a palette typical of Forester’s output in the early 20th century and evocative of the broader Art Deco design movement in Britain.
Standing 26 cm tall with a diameter of 14 cm, the vase is stamped to the base with the Phoenix Ware insignia, along with the ‘Athens’ mark and model number 6192. The condition is very good, with light wear in line with age and use—no chips or cracks, and the glaze retains its clarity and depth.
A fine example of 1930s English pottery, offering both decorative appeal and historic value for collectors of ceramic art, Staffordshire pottery, or Art Deco interiors.
