Newtone Art Ware was a brand name used by The Bakewell Pottery which operated in Sydney from 1884 to 1955. The Newtone brand name was used from the 1930s and continued till the late 1940s. A large range of decorative vases was produced in a great variety of shapes and colour ways. Much of their production was of slipware with hand applied glazes, including drip-glazing. Some glazed vases and jugs had embossed gum leaves and kookaburras. In addition to vases, the Newtone range included basket vases, shoe shaped vases, mugs, wall pockets and footed bowls. Newtone also included hand-painted pieces with Australian flowers and scenery, some of which were painted by Daisy Merton. The Newtone range also included figurines of kookaburras on stumps, serviette rings and ashtrays, and figurines of koalas on branches. Painted wares continued briefly after 1945 and include small dishes in the shape of Australia.
