This Meissen Rose individual or miniature tea pot is 3-1/2" high by 6" wide. There is a Meissen rose on each side of the pot and three buds on the lid. The crossed sword mark with the pommels on the bottom dates the pot to 1860-1924. This is genuine Meissen, not one of its many imitators who used similar crossed swords as marks. The condition is excellent, as if unused. This would be an elegant way to treat yourself to an individual cup of tea or just keep it on a shelf for display. It's a gem. I also have several dinner plates in the Meissen rose pattern, please inquire.   « Less

This is an English Prattware pottery pot lid, 4" in diameter, 7-1/4" with the frame which is 1-1/8" thick. The wide oak frame, which is probably original, has a split, which is an indication of age. This lid is listed as No. 192 in Under Glaze Colour Picture Prints on Staffordshire Pottery by Harold George Clarke and described as "seven circular scenes, depicting Shakespeare's seven ages from 'As You Like It' . . . . We see first the child in his mother's lap . . . .; then the reluctant school-boy dragging his books on the floor, and a dog by his side; next the love-sick swain composing lines to his fair one; and after that the stern soldier storming a fort at the head of his men. The next little picture shows the justice, with an ample meal before him, and then the old slippered man with his stick and a boy at his side; and finally the toothless invalid, all wrapped-up, sitting in his arm-chair, while a woman attends on him. . . . The spaces between the circles are purple . . . .' The edges of the lid are covered by the frame which obscures the title "The Seven Ages of Man" and "As You Like It, Act II, Scene VII" at the bottom. The condition of the lid is excellent, with three stilt marks on the back. There is fine, overall crazing, which, according to Clarke, is a sign that the lid is genuinely old and not a later reproduction. The lid dates to about 1880 and is rated Very Rare by Clarke. Originally small pots with lids were used in the mid 19th century to hold bear grease, which was used as a pomade for hair. Later in the 19th century the pots were used for fish paste, potted shrimp and meat. The lids came to be prized for their own sake. The fine detail in the pictures results from the transfer printing from copper plate engravings. Each color is applied in a separate, painstaking process which demanded great skill. These lids are truly miniature works of art. I have several more interesting pot lids, so please inquire.   « Less

This small but remarkable oil on board is 6" x 8", 9-1/4" x 11-1/4" with the frame. It depicts four or five ships with sails on calm seas under the clouds. There is a signature at lower left that is possibly h. holder, a late 19th c. English artist, but it is difficult to be certain. The painting itself is in excellent condition, no paint loss, although it might benefit from a cleaning. Since many people prefer original condition, I have not had it cleaned. There is a nick in the gilded plaster of the frame at the lower left corner and a scrape at the bottom edge of the frame, but these are not serious and do not affect the image itself. This lovely small and desirable painting can fit just about anywhere, like a foyer, a narrow part of wall next to a door, etc.   « Less
