A painting by Paine Proffitt featuring the ceramics industry of Stoke-On-Trent. The piece is painted to look like a vintage advertising poster of the 1920s or 1930s. The background is split in half with the top half painted a textured white and the bottom half painted a textured dark red with the faint weathered hint of old advertising writing. On the top half is a stylised head and shoulders of a woman with 1920s 1930s hair with blue eyes, red lips and a white hairband in her hair. She holds her hand up to feature an old bottle kiln, the distinctive building-size ovens used to fire ceramics in Stoke-On-Trent. Puffs of smoke come from the bottle oven. On the bottom half of the piece is a black band with the words STOKE-ON-TRENT on it in white and a white tea pot with a light blue flower pattern.
A new piece featuring The Potteries and the ceramics industry of Stoke-On-Trent 🖤
