Deco Lady Bookends – Goldschneider – c1940

Short Description

Simply superb, a rare pair of ceramic bookends by Marcel Goldscheider in collaboration with Myott of Stoke-on-Trent, England.

The Goldscheider family through Friedrich Goldscheider started their ceramics business in Vienna in 1885. It soon developed an enviable reputation for quality and leading art in its form. They opened outposts in Paris, Leipzig and Florence creating masterpieces in Art Nouveau and Art Deco. They were also commissioned by Rosenthal and Meissen.

With the “writing in the wall” in Europe the family migrated in 1938. Brother Walter went to the USA and started a factory at Trenton, New Jersey. Marcel, as already noted, went to England and the ceramic heartland at Stoke to work alongside Myott. He opened his own studio in the 1950’s at Hanley.

The items are free of any damage, are signed Goldscheider Staffordshire. They are beautifully formed with a very feminine Goldscheider look. They appear to be slightly different – one lady her head slightly cocked, evidencing a truly crafted piece. Nicely hand painted not in a fully like for like manner which adds to the special feel. They are roughly 11cm cube and weigh circa 850gm the pair.

Goldscheider Deco Ladies a rare find and in fine condition
