Lovely Vintage Oval Bowl - Ridgway - England - St Heliers

Pottery : Ridgways : England : Royal Salon Ware

 

Wonderful and unique vintage oval bowl from Ridgways, England. This bowl shows a scene of ships sailing on a rough sea with a building in the background, all in blue hues. The bottom corner of the scene says 'ST HELIERS'. The back stamp indicates this was part of the Ridgways series of 'paintings by famous artists'. The gold back stamp says 'Royal Salon Ware', 'from Paintings By Famous Artists', 'Ridgways'. This series was from around the 1900's and makes this a vintage piece. There is no information available as to the artist of this particular scene, depicting the harbor of St Heliers, Jersey, the Channel Islands. In very good condition, there is a lot of normal wear on the gold trim around the rim, and the original glazing is roughly done. The blue color turns into a green tint at the bottom half of the bowl, I am not sure if this was intentional, but it appears to be. This is a unique piece to add to any collection of Ridgways or maritime items.
