Large Derby Figurine Representing Britannia, Ca. 1765

England Ca. 1765

A lovely example of the early English sculptures produced at the
Derby Factory during Derby’s golden age. The form of this figurine is from the story of Una and the Lion. At the time of this listing I also have a figure of Minerva that would make a great companion piece.

Next Piece

Worcester Teapot, Ca. 1780

An attractive late 18th century gold and white teapot, though unmarked is undoubtedly a product of the Worcester manufactory. The ribbed barrel form is decorated with gold swags. This would make a very good shelf piece at a low cost as one side has had the gold heavily rubbed.
