Moorcroft England Flambé Pottery Lamp “Hibiscus” Pattern, c. 1950

A Moorcroft Flambé glaze pottery lamp in the Hibiscus pattern in good working order. The flambé brings out bright colours in the Hibiscus pattern with large red, purple, and yellow flowers with orange buds and green leaves over a deep red background.  This pattern was one of Walter Moorcroft’s designs and dates mid 1940’s to early 1950’s.  The flambé glaze was always more difficult to produce as they had to fire it at intense heat that would often break the pottery – so the flambé is more rare.

Note: there is no shade for this lamp but it does have its harp and finial and sits on a metal base.

The lamp measures 28 inches tall from the base to the top of the finial and is 6 inches wide across the base.

It is in excellent condition.
