A very attractive collectable Staffordshire art deco pottery chintz
pattern on a circular salad bowl with a silver plated rim. It was produced
around 1925 at the Newport Pottery, Burslem, owned by A.J. Wilkinson - best
known as the Clarice Cliff maker. The design does not appear to be recorded in
any chintz literature and is actually called Chintz as the
pattern name not just a generic term. This suggests it may be the first chintz
pattern to be made by Newport/Wilkinson. Chintz is a striking
multi-coloured lithographic pattern with birds in flight which is particularly
successful. An important rare design that epitomizes the best of English
Staffordshire chintz art pottery." Antiques
