{"id":1072,"count":2,"description":"Explore vintage Martin Boyd Pottery and Australian ceramics selected by TMC Emporium.\r\n\r\nMartin Boyd Pottery was established in Sydney in 1946 by sculptor and potter Guy Boyd, a son of pioneering Australian potter William Merric Boyd. Despite its name, the commercial pottery was not founded by the novelist Martin \u00e0 Beckett Boyd. The business was named in recognition of Guy Boyd\u2019s uncle and formed part of the wider artistic legacy of the Boyd family.\r\n\r\nMartin Boyd Pottery produced a varied range of decorative and functional Australian ceramics, including bowls, dishes, ramekins, ashtrays, vases and commissioned advertising pieces. Surviving examples are recognised for their strong mid-century forms, contrasting glazes, incised or hand-painted decoration and distinctive Martin Boyd workshop signatures.\r\n\r\nPieces may feature Australian animals, plants, figurative subjects, geometric designs, commercial emblems and richly coloured glaze combinations. Because Martin Boyd Pottery operated as a commercial workshop, considerable variation can occur between forms, signatures, decorators and production periods.\r\n\r\nEach Martin Boyd Pottery item offered by TMC Emporium is individually photographed and examined. Our listings describe dimensions, weight, condition, decoration, marks and provenance where known.\r\n\r\nBrowse the available Martin Boyd Pottery collection below, or read our Martin Boyd Pottery history, marks and collecting guide to learn more about the pottery, its signatures and its connection with the Boyd artistic dynasty.","link":"https:\/\/themccorrycollection.com\/m\/shop\/product-category\/tmc-emporium\/martin-boyd-pottery\/","name":"Martin Boyd Pottery","slug":"martin-boyd-pottery","taxonomy":"product_cat","parent":836,"meta":{"slim_seo":[]},"menu_order":0,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themccorrycollection.com\/m\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat\/1072","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themccorrycollection.com\/m\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themccorrycollection.com\/m\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/product_cat"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themccorrycollection.com\/m\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat\/836"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/themccorrycollection.com\/m\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?product_cat=1072"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
