Vintage Hornsea Muramic Lancaster Vitramic 15.5cm Pin Dish Bowl 1970s Retro
A very attractive vintage Hornsea Pottery Muramic shallow bowl, featuring a wonderfully bold geometric design typical of the period.
The shallow circular bowl has a chocolate brown body with a contrasting pale rim. The centre is decorated with a striking radiating combed/dragged glaze design in mustard yellow, olive green, black and white, producing an almost optical or sunburst effect.
The underside carries the gold factory backstamp:
LANCASTER VITRAMIC
Muramic
HORNSEA ENGLAND
A lovely example of Hornsea’s more unusual decorative pottery and a particularly appealing piece for a mid-century modern or retro interior.
Approximate measurements:
Diameter: 15.5cm
Depth/height: 3cm
The bowl is in good vintage condition overall. There are some minor signs of age/use and natural variations within the hand-applied glaze decoration, as can be seen in the close-up photographs. Please study all photographs carefully as these form an important part of the condition description.
Ideal as a decorative bowl, pin dish or display piece, and an attractive addition to a collection of Hornsea, Muramic or British mid-century studio-style pottery.
