Delft Charger, Coursing a Stag, English, circa 1710

About the Item

Tin glazed earthenware (Delftware) dish, in an unusual shape; elaborately and skillfully painted with a man coursing a stag. Probably London; perhaps Bristol. Probably the salver for a large ewer. English Delftware is considered to be one of the most important forms of English ceramic production of the period, and it had a major influence on the development of the British ceramics industry in the centuries that followed. Today, it is highly valued by collectors and is considered to be a fine example of the art of tin-glazed earthenware. Stag coursing was a sport in which dogs, usually greyhounds, were used to chase and hunt red deer stags. The dogs are usually released from a starting box and are trained to pursue the deer, which are released from a different location and given a head start to ensure a fair chase. The goal of the sport is for the dogs to catch and immobilize the deer, which is typically done by biting and holding onto the deer's neck. The deer was then humanely dispatched by a huntsman. Now illegal in most parts, the sport was a survival of a very ancient form of hunting, and this form of hunting is likely the reason why dogs were first domesticated.

Crafted from creamware, the charger features a meticulously painted geometric border composed of orange and black flowerheads set within a lattice of fine black lines. Each flowerhead is centered in a diamond-shaped cell, creating a repeating pattern that radiates rhythm and precision. The inner field is left undecorated, emphasizing the clean form and enhancing the visual impact of the border. The simplicity of the cream-colored ground paired with the precise hand-painting along the rim reflects the neoclassical restraint and balance that defined Wedgwood’s aesthetic...
