This vintage Remued baluster vase, model 184, is a lovely piece of Australian drip pottery from the early 20th century.


This is from the early series. It shares its number with a later release of vase baskets.


Handmade with a beautiful red into green drip glaze, it is signed underneath by Remued 184.


It’s 12cm in height, and in fab condition.


The light squares are just from my lights. There are no chips of cracks, just a few crazes as you can see in the photos.


A bit of history in case you’re interested:


1934 was a pivotal year for Premier Pottery Preston. At the start of that year the Remued brand was already in production as well as the longer-established PPP. There was as yet no system of standard shape numbers. Allan James was working as junior potter alongside David Dee. David Dee's health was deteriorating, foreshadowing the blow that would soon occur - he died in mid-March, aged 57, and the fate of the pottery hung in the balance. Reg Hawkins assumed the running of the business. Within two weeks he married Noni Deumer who injected capital ('Remued' is Deumer spelt backwards). Hawkins set about systematising the product range and set up shape-numbering systems. Remued and PPP shapes were assigned numbers (the 'Early Series' of this catalogue) and Pamela shapes were given their own separate number series ('Pamela Series'), but soon afterwards the PPP and Pamela names were both dropped. Most PPP shapes disappeared although some continued with the Remued name. Many Pamela shapes were absorbed into the Early Series with new numbers and the Remued name. PPP shapes are found scattered through the Early Series numbering up to about no.150, whereas ex-Pamela shapes are mostly found between about 140 and 200.


By the end of 1934 all production was under the Remued name. Every piece now had a shape number incised to base, except for a few specials and commemorative pieces. The young Allan James had taken on the role of principal thrower.


Remued pottery entered what many consider its golden age, characterised by luscious drip-glazes and often adorned with gumleaves and gumnuts. Rough-shaped twig handles started to appear, not only on jugs as before but now also as purely decorative additions to vases and bowls. Applied decoration also featured grapevines, and more rarely koalas and other creatures (click here for Early Series animal examples). Pieces with applied decoration are amongst the most sought-after today. Matt glazes came to be increasingly featured, typically on the upper body in combination with gloss below.
