Clarice Cliff Original Bizarre Plate

Stunning piece of art deco Clarice Cliff. In 1925, Cliff was given her own studio initially taking defective wares and crudely handpainting them with geometric patterns to hide the faults. Proving very popular, this range was named Bizarre and ran from 1928 -1935. Often referred to as Original Bizarre by collectors, this meant a range of designs rather than one specific pattern but all typically with thickly applied bright colourways and geometric shapes. This fabulous large plate has a bold star pattern of blue, red, purple, yellow and green. In excellent condition with no chips or cracks. One minute loss of paint to the red as photographed. With a gold backstamp for Bizarre by Clarice Cliff and Newport Pottery and a green stamp for Wilkinson. Diameter  - 24.5 cms.
