Yellow Lustre Art Deco Style "Jane" Jug or Vase - James Sadler



SOLD

Beautiful yellow with petrol lustre jug with gold edging in the "Jane" pattern by Sadler. It bears the post 1947 ribbon mark but the design is resolutely deco in style. The interior is crazed and there looks to be a short crack in the glaze near the handle but this doesn't appear on the outside and when tapped it doesn't sound cracked. The gilding is near perfect. The only exterior surface fault is a small air blow in the glaze on the shoulder near the handle join, about 5mm across, that reveals the rough surface of the underglaze where a bubble has breached the surface. It's noticeable only from the side and isn't a massive detraction from the overall effect. It's still a lovely looking piece.
