Dated: 1820 Staffordshire England
A rare and fine Obadiah Sherratt attributed bocage figure of a lion with a paw resting on a sphere. The oak leaf bocage points and the waisted shaped base give the "Sherratt" attribution. The figure is exceptionally modeled with good attention to detail and fine quality enameling. Several models were made of this figure and this example is one of the best, the base for the figure is a wonderful example of the potters' art and defines the figure as "top drawer".
Dimensions: 7.75 inches high
Current Condition: Minor restoration at tail, tips of some leaves and touched in enamels.
Provenance: With Jonathan Horne Kensington London.
Literature: Myrna Schkolne Volume 3 page 153 figure reference 126.38
