Large Staffordshire figure of Benjamin Franklin but named Washington for George Washington, mid-19th century The large Staffordshire pottery figure depicts an elegant standing figure with the name "Washington" written in gold enamel around the base.  This refers to George Washington, the first President of the United States except the figure is actually of Benjamin Franklin. The figure on a circular white base depicts the figure in a deep blue long jacket on a waistcoat decorated with flowers in iron-red and green enamel his left hand holding a three-cornered hat and his right a book.
