Large Pearlware Blue Printed Tray with The Angry Lion Pattern

About the Item

English Pearlware pottery blue printed tray, The Angry Lion Pattern, Circa 1815-20 The Unusual English pottery footed tray is pearlware and is printed with a rare pattern known as "The Angry Lion" by a maker, as yet, unknown. The tray has a plain loop handle on each side with six recessed panels in the central well each printed with the "Angry Lion" pattern. The exterior with a dark blue background with scrolling leaves is printed with partial cartouches of a figure on horseback with a large basket on the left side and other panels contain a Chinoiserie pavilion. The "Angry Lion" pattern is considered rare. This version shows a large lion incongruously standing in an English landscape with a country house in the middle ground with extensive woods to either side. To the left, a figure on horseback with a large basket on their left side is riding up a steep path. Some variations of the pattern are wider and have small figures to the right.

Staffordshire Georgian Two Pearlware Religious Printed Childs Plates with Verse
By Staffordshire
Located in Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire
Two fine English Georgian, probably Staffordshire, child’s pearlware plates decorated with religious scenes and verse dating from the early 19th century. The finely potted plates are of octagonal shape both with relief molded fruit and floral designs to the rim, one hand painted and other simply glazed rim but with a pink lustre edge. Due to the edge patterning being the same we believe the plates to have originated from the same pottery. Both plates have printed religious scenes to the center with printed prayers, possibly as teaching aids for children. One has a scene of Christ rising from the dead with a prayer reading ‘Behold him rising from the grave. Behold him raised on high. He pleads his merit there to save Transgressor doom’d to die.’ The scene shows soldiers, some sleeping around the entrance to the tomb. The second plate shows a child reading...

English Pearlware Coffee Pot, Blue Transferware, Fallow Deer in Snow, 1800-1820
Located in London, GB
This is a superb coffee pot made in England between 1800 and 1825. The pot is made of pearlware and has a very charming blue transfer printed pattern of fallow deer in a snowy landscape with farm buildings. This transfer print looks like an early 19thC print; as we couldn't identify the maker it was impossible to date it exactly. A charming detail is that the rim of the cover and the footrim, which are printed with a row of houses, both are printed up side down; this was probably done by children, who often did the smaller transfer prints because their little fingers could handle the thin strips of paper better than adults. The coffeepot is unmarked. There is an old shop label on the underside stating it is "English, probably Spode" - however, although this pot is certainly English, it is certainly not Spode. CONDITION REPORT The coffee pot is in good antique and usable condition without any damage to the pot or the spout; there are just some chips off the lower rim of the cover, which are not visible when in position and are inconsequential for using the pot. As is normal for antique pearlware...
