Vase in thrown salt-glazed stoneware with incised and applied relief decoration probably by Edwin Martin, 1893. The Martin Brothers were one of the few small-scale designer-makers in the early Arts & Crafts period. Their interest in working with clay, using incised, applied and modelled decoration, relates to the studio pottery movement in the 20th century.

Many Arts & Crafts designers including William De Morgan experimented with painted decoration or glaze effects often on commercially-produced pottery blanks. This earthenware dish was probably supplied as a blank to De Morgan's workshop by the Hanley firm of Davis. It was painted with copper lustre over a white slip in about 1880.

Winchcombe Pottery dish, about 1930, designed and decorated by Michael Cardew with a wavy line which has become known as the 'Winchcombe' pattern. The earthenware was thrown as a circle by Elijah Comfort then reshaped by cutting out a leaf-shaped piece of clay and pressing the sides together to form an oval dish.
