Produced in the late 19th century, Silicon ware was celebrated for its dense body and ability to replicate beaten metalwork in the Arts and Crafts taste. Standing 18 cm high, the tapered bulbous vessel rests on a short stepped foot with a sturdy strap handle. The underside carries the impressed Doulton Silicon Lambeth factory mark and model number 824. A period metal staple repair is present at the lower handle terminal.
