Seconds Sierra PLQ3 Plaque

The final design in designer Vicky Lovatt’s daffodil series is Sierra. It is thought that the Romans brought daffodils to Britain from the Iberian Peninsula, predominately Portugal and Spain, where the largest variety of daffodil species were found. Today, the Sierra de Guadarrama mountains alone are home to more than 1,280 different plants including many varieties of wild daffodils.

Whilst this is a plant steeped in history, Vicky’s daffodils have a modern feel to them. Shooting upwards behind four golden daffodil heads, with their frilled trumpets, are three dark green shards. An unusual dark tubing slip has been applied to this plaque to add to the sense of modernity, whilst also creating a stained-glass window effect in clay.

 

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.
