Seconds The Owl 158/2 Vase

C.F.A Voysey was an architect and furniture and textile designer who created wallpapers, fabrics and furnishings in the Arts and Crafts style. In 1897, he created a design with pairs of owls and nesting chicks which was produced as a paper by Essex & Co that same year, and in 1898, as a woollen cloth tissue hanging by Alexander Morton & Co. Owls often stay with the same partner for life and in spring, lay their eggs. By May, owlets emerge and now is the time for Rachel’s Voysey inspired owl to take to the skies to hunt and bring food to its young.

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.
