Seconds Peacocks & Dragons 80/16 Vase

‘If I were asked to say what is at once the most important production of art and the thing most to be longed for, I should answer - a beautiful house.’- William Morris.

Morris believed that everybody has the right to a beautiful house, and also that the objects within it should be beautiful. Peacocks & Dragons by Nicola was inspired by the fabric adorning an armchair at Kelmscott Manor which featured peacocks and dragons. Her creation transports the incredible, interwoven detail of a Kelmscott fabric with symmetrical ribbons of foliage and mythical beasts so it comes alive into the world of Moorcroft pottery.

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.
