An original 1930’s customer leaflet for a Clarice Cliff "As you like it" table decoration printed to one side with a photograph of a set decorated in Blue Firs with various arrangement display ideas and description to the reverse, measures 14cm by 17cm, together with a similar period magazine advert for "Bizarre Ware" with staged photographs, later card mounted. [‘As You like it’ customer leaflet. This original leaflet was given to customers to explain how it could ingeniously be arranged in many different ways. The set originally comprised shapes 657, 658 and 659 but soon Clarice created a square section tall vase shape 689 which was then also offered with the set. The leaflet title ‘An Ever Changing Table Decoration’ was replaced with the more inventive name for the set of ‘As you like it’. The extra shape and the change of title show how Clarice was meticulous at constantly improving her imaginative wares. DM]
May Avenue - A Clarice Cliff 18" ribbed charger circa 1933 hand decorated with a tree lined road with red roofed cottages before turquoise bushes with black spade trees together with a large black trunk tree with Cafe Au Lait style tonal green stippled foliage all within black and blue banding, Bizarre mark, width 45cm. Condition - No chips, cracks or restoration - Two small paint flakes to the black on a lower tree bough and a number of faint small linear scratches to the turquoise bushes and outer banding. [Only the second ever example to come up for auction, this has been consigned by a direct descendant of the original owner. Having lived for many years underneath a Ping Pong table the charger was discovered by the vendor and gifted by her grandmother as a sixteenth birthday present. From the Bizarre girls point of view it was an elaborate, very labour-intensive pattern. Thanks to Leonard Griffin’s research we know that all these elements were originally combined by Italian painter and sculptor Amadeo Modigliani in his painting "Landscape at Cagnes". It’s still a mystery as to why the name "May Avenue" was chosen by Clarice. Perhaps it was her Potteries sense of humour, as there are two roads with this name within a few miles of her Tunstall home! DM]
