Antique English Vase c. 1880-1920

This Antique Transferware Vase (c. 1880–1920) showcases the artistry of late 19th and early 20th century ceramic design. Adorned with an intricate floral motif, the piece reflects the elegance and charm of the transferware tradition, which allowed decorative pottery to reach a wider audience through innovative production techniques.

Transferware was created by transferring designs from engraved plates onto ceramic surfaces, making richly decorated ceramics more accessible to the middle class. Popular in England and the United States, these pieces often featured single-color floral or scenic patterns—commonly in blue, black, or brown. The delicate crazing in the glaze on this vase further emphasizes its age and authenticity.
