£5500

Dated: 1820 Staffordshire Potteries England

Antique Staffordshire pottery figure group in pearlware and coloured glazes. This figure is known as PERSUASION and would have been produced at the beginning of the 19th century in Staffordshire. The rather demure female figure is rather contently thinking about the wonderful offer her partner has made to her as he profers a gold ring. A rather whymsical dog looks adoringly and coyly at his mistress almost beseeching her to say yes. The figures are very well modelled and coloured as is usually the case with this very appealing figure from The Patriotic Group pottery.

Dimensions: 9 inches high

Current Condition: Restored, at bench some bocage and flowers.

Literature: Myrna Schkolne People Passions Pastimes and Pleasures also in her Volume 1 Staffordshire Figures 1780-1840 showing the various attributes of the Patriotic Group.
