A Classic Moorcroft Vase in the Iconic Oberon Pattern
The Oberon pattern is one of Rachel Bishop's most celebrated designs for Moorcroft Pottery — a lush, romantic composition of poppies and foliage that has become a benchmark of 1990s British art pottery. This hand-painted example, shape 4/10, was produced in 1993 using Moorcroft's signature tube-lined slip technique on a ceramic mould, resulting in the richly dimensional surface the pottery is renowned for.
