Seconds Kismet 80/9 Vase

The pastel shades that Rachel has used for Kismet fit well with her passion for the Florianware era at Moorcroft c. 1900, as does the perennially popular 80/9 shape used on this occasion.  Rachel would be the first to admit that her choice of colour was intended to reflect Moorcroft’s vintage heritage.  She is there to tell us that Moorcroft’s survival has come about because of the strong design foundations first built into the art pottery’s work by its founding father, William Moorcroft and how out of the past comes the future.  We can now enjoy our Florianware past at one and the same time with Kismet.

What is a Moorcroft second? All our art pottery is closely inspected before it leaves the Moorcroft factory and the selection process is as rigorous as any in the world. As a result, not all pieces emerge unblemished in their quality assessment. The fault or faults may be in the finish of a piece, whether it be a tiny tubeline miss, an incorrectly painted petal, or a small glaze run. Seconds are not ‘red-dotted’, all of them are far too good for that, and each seconds piece has a charm and individuality of its own. Any fault is not structural and the piece can still be used for the purpose it was made. 

The 'Was' price shown is the Best Quality RRP of this design and shape.
