Description
Antique English pottery watch holder in pratt colours.
This rare example is very well coloured in the typical Pratt pallette.
There are two interesting figures flanking the central figure of a girl who is standing by a plinth with a fountain head spouting water from a bachus type head. It is worth noting the liberty taken by the modeller of this figure with the length of the girls arm on the back of the holder. This telescopic feature could be very useful in everyday life if only it was feasible. This quirk of modelling is of course one of the wonderful attributes of this pottery figure group.Attributed to Yorkshire or Staffordshire England.
