Hand Painted Prattware Plaque Showing a Pair of Lions, Made England, circa 1800
About the Item
Provenance: The Rouse Lench Collection
A pair of lions resting comfortably on a Prattware plaque molded in high relief. They probably just finished a big meal! Hand painted in three brown shades: their bodies are painted light brown, their manes and tails a darker brown, and their muzzles an almost black, midnight brown. The brushwork is intentionally prominent. The effect is splendid!
As is the case with the lions on this plaque, Prattware has raised decoration colored with underglaze oxides.
The plaque is pierced at the top for a hanging wire.
Ref: See John and Griselda Lewis PRATTWARE English and Scottish relief decorated and underglaze colored earthenware 1780-1840 page 208, where it describes "a white bodied plaque with two reclining lions in relief 253mm x 311mm".
Also, see ref; The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art (Burnap Collection) b.851 (BI 305)
Dimensions: 11" x 9" x 2" height
Condition: Excellent
Price: $450
Background of Prattware:
Prattware is a pottery style made in the late 18th and early 19th centuries by over 20 English and Scottish factories. It takes its name from the Pratt family of Staffordshire potters. However, many other British factories, including those in Staffordshire, Yorkshire, Liverpool, Sunderland, and Scotland, also produced this type of pottery. Prattware always consists of pearled creamware decorated with figures or decorations in relief, fired at high temperature, with oxides painted under the glaze.

Antique Wedgwood Creamware Charger Geometric Border England Circa 1785
By Wedgwood
Located in Katonah, NY
This elegant Wedgwood charger was made in England in the late 18th century, circa 1785.
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.
