      • Product Description: Earthenware vase with hand painted lustre decoration. Design adapted from an original bottle designed by William De Morgan and painted by Frederick Passenger, about 1895.

        This collection of beautiful contemporary lustreware has been created exclusively for the V&A by Spanish potter Arturo Mora, taking inspiration from the 19th century lustreware of William De Morgan, Walter Crane, John Pearson and Frederick Passenger. De Morgan was particularly inspired by Iznik and Spanish lustrewares on display at The South Kensington Museum, now the V&A.

        Mora hails from Manises, near Valencia, which is historically one of the most important centres for Spanish pottery production. Descended from a long line of potters, Arturo works entirely in the traditional methods passed down through generations. Invented in Iran in the 9th century, the rich 'lustre' comes from an overglazing decoration which uses metallic pigments, creating a wonderfully shiny surface.

        Each piece has been inspired by an original 19th century object in the V&A's extensive ceramics collection.

        Created exclusively for the V&A.
