Pair 18th Century French Creamware Lions Hand Painted Circa 1790
Located in Katonah, NY
This rare and charming pair of 18th-century French creamware lions was made circa 1790. Each lion reclines atop a tall rectangular base decorated with rich cobalt-blue swags, bright yellow tassels, and vivid green trim. The forms are bold and expressive. The lions' open mouths are painted in soft pink, and their manes are rendered in vibrant yellow and lined with dark brown, lending them an animated, almost theatrical presence. The lions rest on what appear to be stylized, draped cushions, adding a sense of comfort and reality. Their wide-eyed expressions and exaggerated features give the pair a whimsical character that blends elegance with humor—a hallmark of late 18th-century French design. Unmarked but unmistakably French in style, these figures make a striking decorative statement. Whether placed on a mantel or console, they command attention and offer a playful counterpoint to more serious classical forms. Dimensions: 6.5 inches tall x 6.75 inches long x 4.5 inches wide Condition: Excellent Price: $2,300 Decoration: Painted in yellow, cobalt, green, pink, and brown with molded drapery and tassel detail Material: Creamware pottery Style: French Neoclassical with Folk Art elements Origin: France Date: Circa 1790 Key Features - Rare pair of large 18th-century creamware lion figures - Expressive hand-painted decoration with bold color contrasts - Tall bases decorated with molded and painted swags and tassels - French origin, circa 1790 - Whimsical and animated expressions add charm and visual interest Background of creamware Creamware is the name given to a type of earthenware pottery initially made from white clays from Dorset and Devonshire combined with an amount of calcined flint. Creamware was first produced in England sometime before 1740. Foremost among the pioneers of creamware in the Staffordshire Potteries was Thomas Whieldon. The young Josiah Wedgwood partnered with Thomas Whieldon from 1754 to 1759. When Wedgwood left to set up his own business, he immediately directed his efforts to developing creamware. Around the same time, in the mid-18th century, French potters developed their creamware known in France as "Faience Fine...

Located in Downingtown, PA

Large Creamware Racing Horse Leeds Pottery Made England Circa 1840
Located in Katonah, NY
I have always wanted one of these. I'm thrilled to have found it. This Leeds Pottery stallion has a wonderful face with beautiful eyes. Large creamware enamel-painted horses are rare. Leeds made the largest of the creamware horses. Our horse is 16.75 inches tall x 14.75" long. A similar example can be seen in Leeds Museums and Art Galleries (Temple Newsam House) and was featured in an exhibition during an exhibition that ran from June 1- October 30, 2005, in "The Leeds Pottery 1770 1881". Condition: Excellent with light craquelure in the glaze Price: $9,600 Our horse is cream-colored with an orange harness and a full bushy brown tail. The figure is finely modeled: he stands proudly with his head slightly turned to the right, wearing a halter, the lead line laid across his back. His tail was neatly applied, swinging onto one hind leg. The top of the base is a mottled green within a molded stiff-leaf border glazed in manganese. On his belly and underneath the bottom are two unglazed patches where the model was held up during the firing process. Dealers in equestrian feed, medicine, and tack used large pottery horses in their display windows, like those seen here, to draw in customers. Examples can be found in the Leeds City Museum, the Yorkshire Museum, and the Glasgow Art Gallery and Museum. The original Leeds Pottery factory closed around 1849-50. These prominent figures of horses were made for window displays in saddlers and tack stores, for dealers trading in horse equipment...
