Martinique Lamp by Jeanne McDougall

Designed by Jeanne McDougall. 

Every piece of Moorcroft has marks on the base which will tell a story. They identify the designer, the year the piece was made, the year of the design and who the painter and tub-liner were. Additionally, every piece carries an impressed "Moorcroft" stamp on the base which no other pottery in the world can use.

Uniquely, Moorcroft is both cast and decorated before the pots are fired for the first time. A second firing comes after the pot has been dipped in a special glaze. The result is a design made up of deep, rich colours which some say have the qualities of precious stones.
