Description

A Hadley’s Worcester pedestal vase and gilded cover, modelled with twin horned mask handles, painted with monochrome birds on rose branches, reticulated and relief moulded bands. The gilding, which contrasts with the almost black glazed details of the vase, gives it a luxurious appearance. Very unique cover with a gold tip, elegant cut-out pattern on the inside of the vase neck. The vase has a pink underglaze mark ‘ Hadley’s & Sons Worcester ‘which relates to a specified period of the piece production. Earlier such vases serve both a decorative and practical purpose.
James Hadley porcelain wares were made using colored clay moldings in dark blue, green and brown which distinguished them from similar objects made by the Royal Worcester factory. Many of the floral designs found on Hadley ware were painted in monochrome, but were always of a very high quality. Much of the Hadley output consisted of high-class earthenware decorated with transparent glazes. Hadley's porcelain wares from this period are particularly valued by collectors all over the world. A couple of words about James Hadley (1837-1903). By 1870 James Hadley had become the principal modeller at Royal Worcester porcelain. In 1875 he left the Worcester factory and set up his own modelling studio at 95 High Street, Worcester. Hadley is reputed to have sold the complete output of his factories ornamental vases and figures to Royal Worcester and he inscribed his name on the base of his master models. In 1895 Royal Worcester cancelled James Hadley’s contract due to a drastic drop in the demand for elaborate luxury goods. Hadley then rented some factory space from his old friend Edward Locke and later he built a factory in Diglis Road, Worcester using land owned by his family. In June 1905, after James Hadley's death, Royal Worcester purchased the Hadley factory for Ł7500.
