Early Clarice Cliff - Original Bizarre

First Clarice Cliff 'Bizarre' mark - hand painted 1928

Used briefly from July to October 1928, the first 'Bizarre' mark was hand painted and nearly always seen with the Newport Pottery backstamp. Interestingly, the Clarice Cliff name wasn't added to these early wares. As sales increased and the range grew, various lithographed and stamped 'Bizarre by Clarice Cliff' marks were used. Below is a fine coffee pot from those early days. For more details see Premier Antiques
