Daisy Makeig-jones Wedgwood Lustre Bowl, C.1915

A rare and highly collectible Wedgwood Lustre bowl, with slightly worn pattern Z4831, designed by Daisy Makeig-Jones circa 1915. The green lustre exterior, enriched with multicolored stainings producing a violet sheen, is decorated with finely gilded oriental animal motifs. The interior in soft green lustre is centered with a coiling dragon bearing a human face, flanked by stylized blue clouds.                                                                                                                                                                Makeig-Jones was instrumental in reviving Wedgwood’s profitability during the early 20th century, but she approached her work as more than commercial design. She crafted elaborate visual narratives, transforming porcelain into miniature worlds filled with fantastical creatures, rich gemstone tones and intricate ornament. At 5.3 cm in height and 10 cm in diameter, this bowl is a prime example of her artistry, offering both visual splendor and lasting investment appeal. Condition: Excellent antique condition with no damage. Please study the accompanying photographs carefully as they form an integral part of this description.
