Vintage Australian Trent Art Ware Drip Glaze Planter

$135.00

A little Art Deco and very Australian, this vintage planter was produced in the 1940s as part of the Trent Art Ware line by Bakewells Pottery in Sydney.

Finished in a classic green and brown drip glaze over a ribbed, geometric form, it captures the strong Art Deco influence seen in Australian pottery of the period. The green glaze falls softly down the sides and reminds me of eucalypt leaves, giving the piece a real sense of place and an unmistakably Australian feel.

It’s a wonderful example of mid-century Australian art pottery, full of texture, colour, history and Aussie charm.

    A ceramic planter finished in a green and brown drip glaze, with a soft green glaze to the interior.

    It is signed TRENT and Made in Australia.

  • Very good vintage condition with light age-related wear consistent with use.

    There are no chips or cracks. Some light brown staining is present on one internal side of the planter, along with natural crackling to the glaze, which is typical of pieces from this period. There is also a small amount of light-coloured paint visible on the underside of a couple of corners. I chose not to attempt removal as it is not overly noticeable and I did not want to risk damaging the glaze.

  • I love this planter and can easily imagine it filled with greenery and sitting on a kitchen window ledge. The glaze colours really come to life when paired with coloured flowers or soft grey-toned foliage, creating a timeless and groovy vintage moment in any home.
