Cassandra Annie Walker 'Cantagali shape' twin-handled vase, dated 1903 Terracotta, coloured and glazed, with slip and sgraffito decoration. 32.5 cm high Produced by Della Robbia. Incised Della Robbia galleon mark, with D R, 1903, C.A.W, .316. and 42 in an oval. Footnotes: Literature Peter Hyland, The Della Robbia Pottery, Birkenhead 1894-1906, 2014, p. 164, figs. 166 and 174 (shows a vase of similar shape known as 'Cantagali vase') Cassandra Annie Walker was one of Della Robbia's best and longest serving designers and artists, and as with all of those who worked there, she would have executed her own designs as well as some by others. She continued her artistic education whilst working for Della Robbia and signed up for classes at the Liverpool School of Architecture and Applied Art (the 'Art Sheds') in 1896 and 1901, respectively. Interestingly, Herbert McNair, one of 'The Glasgow Four', moved to Liverpool in 1898 to take up a teaching post at the School. Herbert married Frances MacDonald in 1899 and they stayed in Liverpool until 1905. The connection to the School perhaps explains the Glasgow style influence of the decoration on the sides of the present vase.
