Moorcroft Love Birds Limited Edition Vase, MCR-251 Originally founded as a studio in 1897 within a large ceramic company, James Macintyre & Co. Moorcroft pottery soon made its mark on the world. Today, Moorcroft leads the world of art pottery with its own distinctive design style. We are proud to present this Moorcroft collection featuring stunning pottery designs. Love Birds is a Limited Edition of just 30 pieces by Moorcroft designer Emma Bosson FRSA. In much the same way that in Arabic there are no less than seven words for ‘love’, in Emma’s mind’s eye, there are multiple images all of which can spell that most important of all words in the English language. Emma’s Valentine’s flowers have deep crimson, heart-shaped petals and a centre full of the sweetest nectar imaginable. To these flowers come her hummingbirds, their brightly-coloured wings beating more than thirty times every second and their long beaks poised ready to take out the sweet nectar. In many parts of the world, the hummingbirds themselves are special and from time immemorial, synonymous with love. By bringing these two images together as if by magic, the design is interwoven with both love and beauty. All articles are lovingly and securely dispatched with our elegant packaging.
