Vintage Arthur Wood Blue Lustre Vase with Gold Detail

A beautifully shaped vintage vase by Arthur Wood, finished in a soft iridescent blue lustre glaze that shifts gently in the light between pale aqua and silvery violet tones. The surface has that unmistakable pearlescent sheen associated with early 20th-century lustreware, giving it a quietly luminous presence.

The form is elegant and classical, with a fluted body rising from a neat pedestal foot, and delicate scroll handles at either side adding a subtle decorative flourish. A fine gold rim traces the top edge, providing just the right amount of contrast against the cool glaze.

Stamped to the base with the Arthur Wood mark, this piece reflects the quality and charm of English ceramics from the interwar period, likely dating to the 1920s–1930s.

Height 26cm

Perfect for fresh garden flowers or simply as a standalone decorative piece, it sits beautifully within both traditional interiors and softer, layered “old money” spaces.
