‘Regal Mashman’ Australian Pottery drip glaze Vase

H.35cm
Dia.24cm

Ernest James Theodore (Theo) Mashman (1895-1964), potter, was born on 19 August 1895 at Willoughby, Sydney.

Elder son of Henry Mashman (1856-1922), potter, and his second wife Elizabeth Simpson, née Wieland, a widow.

Theo, as he was known, represented the second generation of Mashmans in Australia.

In the 1930s Theo Mashman was presented as the model, go-ahead, Australian manufacturer, patriotic returned serviceman and sportsman, avid motorist and yachtsman.

He revived the firm’s interest in art-ware with a promotional appeal to ‘Australian-made, Australian workmen, Australian artists and Australian clay’.

With modern methods and high quality material, the new line of ‘Regal Art’ ware, including ornamental bowls, vases and jugs, was to provide articles equal to

most that could be imported and at a price the average housewife could afford.
