Prattware Pottery Macaroni Tea Caddy, Possibly Prestonpans. Scotland
Located in Downingtown, PA
Prattware English Pottery Pearlware Tea Canister,
Macaroni Figures,
Possibly Bankfoot pottery, Prestonpans. Scotland or Staffordshire,
Circa 1790-1800.
The pearlware pottery tea caddy is decorated with Macaroni figures. On one side is depicted a gentleman wearing an exaggeratedly high wig with his servant standing beside him. On the other side is a similarly caricatured lady and her servant.
Dimensions: 5 inches High x 3-1/4 inches Wide x 2 inches Deep.
Condition: Glaze imperfection to neck.
The caddy was possibly made in Scotland at Prestonpans where plaster of Paris moulds were recovered during excavations.
Plaster of Paris moulds recovered during excavations below the floor of the Belfield Pottery in Prestonpans and almost certainly dumped from the earlier Bankfoot pottery.
The figures are modelled in very full relief and painted in green and brown. The narrow sides of the tea caddy are painted with a flowering vine. In the canted corners of the caddy is a wavy underglaze blue line.
During the 18th century, "macaroni" was the satirical term for men who sported elaborate clothing and continental affectations. Lampooning various occupations and specific styles, these are reproductions of period cartoons.
These amusing figures are after English caricatures produced between 1765 and 1790. The satirical jibes were directed at the young moderns of the time, known as "macaronies."
A group of privileged young Englishmen adopted styles and manners they had admired during their travels in Italy and France. They formed the Macaroni Club (macaroni being virtually unknown in England at the time), an eating club where they vied with one another in matters of dress and manners. Extremes developed and soon spread into larger society. With ribbon-and-lace festooned clothing, prim-verging-on-prissy manners and absurd coiffures, macaronies (both male and female) were subjects of ridicule.
