Clarice Cliff - Applique Etna - An 18 inch ribbed charger circa 1930, hand painted with a stylised landscape with trees to the foreground and a mountain below a deep orange sky with black and orange banding, partial Bizarre mark to the reverse.

Provenance - Lot 673 - Clarice Cliff - Christies - 11th November 1994.

NB - This exact charger was used by Clarice Cliff in a period promotional photograph where she appears to be painting the piece, however it would have already been fired otherwise the enamels would have smudged on her coat.

More Information

The charger is free from chips, cracks or restoration, there are a few minor scuffs to the enamel seen within the sea on the shoulder and a couple of very tiny minor marks to the orange sky.
