    ATTWOOD
    (155 items)

    I cried tears of joy when the postie bought this the other day. It is a CROWN DEVON piece of MATTAJADE.37 CM HIGH Believed to be made by Enoch Boulton former chief design of Carlton Ware IN 1933.
    Boulton’s work was richly stylistic and colourful and was originally influenced by the Art Nouveau and Edwardian styles before it began to take on a discrete modernity of its own. A highly accomplished painter, Boulton is said to have created many of Carlton’s most collectible lines of the 1920s. The outstanding Tutankhamen ware (1924-27), celebrating Howard Carter’s discovery of the boy king’s tomb, and featuring gilt transfer prints of Egyptian themes with overglaze enamels on magnificent blue stippled grounds, is but one of his more notable contributions.
    Boulton upped the ante at Crown Devon with the production of exquisite Art Deco ornamental ware, of which the Orient design is one the most striking and original, and the creation of Art Deco and geometric tableware and other fancies.

    Another of Boulton’s accomplishments was the MATTAJADE GROUND, which, combined with a rich array of sybaritic designs, is one of the most collectible of all Crown Devon patterns today. The matt feel of Mattajade was created to take advantage of the awakening interest in Art Deco design and matt effects in the higher end of the market and it hit its mark perfectly.
    The colors and work is just exquisite and I have never owned a piece so beautiful!file
