Written by Olly Gerrish

The Ruskin Pottery was an English art pottery studio founded in 1898 by Edward R. Taylor, the first Principal of both the Lincoln School of Art and the Birmingham School of Art. It was named after the artist, writer and social thinker John Ruskin, as the Taylors agreed with, and followed the tenets of Ruskin. The pottery was situated in Smethwick in the West Midlands. The pottery was notable for the innovative glazes used on a range of brightly coloured pots, vases, buttons, bowls, tea services and jewellery. The period in which such work was done was from 1901-1935. The glazes used on the Ruskin Enamels were the standard production ones but also known are examples of flambé enamels. This brooch is a typical example of what they produced and was made circa 1910
