"Awake ! For morning in the bowl of night, has flung the stone that puts the stars to flight" ~ Rubaiyat ~ This lovely Late 20th Century porcelain figurine, "Omar Khayyam", inspired perhaps by his former tutor Noke's fascination with characters from the "Arabian Nights", bears all of the hallmarks of Reg Johnson's multi-faceted talent, not only as designer, but also as potter and painter. Superbly modelled, beautifully decorated, and fired in his own studio this delightful piece offers the perfect introduction to the works of this talented Staffordshire artist, examples of whose work may now be viewed at The Potteries Museum and Art Gallery. The underside fully signed in black script, viz. :- OMAR KHAYYAM by Studio Potter Reg Johnson.
