Description

This exquisite Fairyland Butterfly Bowl was created by Daisy Makeig-Jones for Wedgwood between 1915 and 1920 it is a stunning example of early 20th-century ceramic art. The piece bears the Wedgwood gold stamp and pattern number Z4832, confirming its authenticity and rarity.

The bowl has an octagonal shape and is of the largest made making it particularly attractive to collectors of Daisy Makeig-Jones works. The combination of a lustre finish and skillful gilding exemplifies the innovative technique and artistic vision of Daisy Makeig-Jones

Susanna Margaretta ‘Daisy’ Makeig-Jones was an influential pottery designer for Wedgwood, renowned for her Fairyland Lustre series, which appeared shortly after she became a full-time designer in 1914. She masterfully combined underglaze variegation, overglaze grain, and iridescence with intricate gilded designs, creating a completely new and captivating style in stoneware.

The first ten lustre series, including this bowl (pattern Z4832), showcased Daisy’s innovative use of color and design. These early pieces, produced between 1914 and 1929, have become collectors' items due to their unique artistic qualities and limited production. Daisy's work, characterized by vivid imagination and technical skill, is increasingly sought after, making her pieces not only artistic treasures but also worthwhile investments.
