Art Deco Danish L Hjorth warrior horsemen pots c1930

The interesting pair is in very good condition. You are bidding on two pots in the same design.

The pots have a design of horse back riders fighting with long spears. There is a horseman with a flag and another with a horn. One has two pigtails streaming behind.  The pieces have a white glaze which thins over the high spots of relief and pools in the low places creating a pleasing effect. The clay base is orange in colour. The bases are marked L Hjorth Danmark. There is no stag mark indicating the piece is an earlier make from this famous Danish pottery on the Isle of Bornholm. There is a pattern number 754 impressed to the base.

The piece can be seen in the 1935 catalogue on page 13 of the PDF below, numbered 754.

Hjorth Bornholm pottery

One pot has a scrape to the bird's head where the glaze has chipped.  There are no other chips or any cracks. There is some fine crazing to the insides and rims with a small amount of dirt in the craze lines.

The pots are 165mm across x 115mm tall. They weigh 1.6kilos.

For North American users a handy guide is 25mm or 2.5cm is a little less than 1 inch, so 100mm or 10cm is just less than 4 inches.
