Bottle vase c. 1882 Glazed earthenwareA ceramic product invented in England around 1720, which belongs to the category of fine stoneware. The porous white bodies are made of fired raw materials containing clay and kaolin as well as quartz, feldspar, and talc. A transparent glaze is applied upon the first or second firing. Earthenware, which is suitable for everyday use, is distinguished by its light, creamy surface. The most famous example of this category is made by the English firm of Wedgwood (since 1780)., height 24 cm Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
The vase was manufactured by Linthorpe Art Pottery, a British company that operated between 1878 and 1890 in Linthorpe, Middlesbrough.
