Spring Festival 2018
Spring flowers first appeared on a list of Moorcroft designs in 1935 with the inaugural pieces attractively decorated on a pure white ground. A year later, a new and rather more complex Spring Flowers design appeared in which the ground colour had mutated from pure white to a cloudier, moss green. The 1930s Spring Flowers designs apart, what we would now describe as being the true flowers of Spring were seemingly rejected by the old guard in charge of design at Moorcroft up to 1986, so much so that, old Florianware apart, only two daffodil/narcissi designs had seemingly emerged right up to 1986. All of that has long since changed, so much so that Moorcroft has enough designs emerging from its kilns to put on a confident Spring Festival show each year, as the cold winter months pass us by and the warmer days gradually turn into Spring.
