Description: This is an octagonal side plate made by A.J. Wilkinson, England, as part of the Honeyglaze product range. It is decorated with a hand painted autumn leaf pattern #E9038. It has an impressed datemark for 1938. A.J. Wilkinson are best known for being the producers of Clarice Cliff designs. Clarice Cliff was born (1899) into a working class family in Tunstall. She showed artistic promise at school and left at age 13 to work as an apprentice enameller at a local factory 3 years later moving to another firm as an apprentice lithographer, at the same time she attended evening classes at Tunstall School of Art. In 1916 at 17 she joined A J Wilkinson's pottery where her drawing brought her to the attention of the owner, Colley Shorter and he allowed her to experiment on some old stock. In 1927 he arranged for her to study sculpture at the Royal College of Art in London. Later in 1927 she studied in Paris. After a few months there she returned to Stoke-on-Trent where Shorter set her up in a decorating studio. By 1929 her designs went into full production as 'Hand Painted Bizarre by Clarice Cliff'. By 1931 she was an Art Director of the factory with a decorating team of around 150. Clarice Cliff and Shorter eventually married. She died in 1972.
