Tobacco Jar, 19th Century

England 2nd Half 19th Century

Tobacco jar in the form of a Turk’s head. This has been in my home for about 20 years. I’ve been hoping to see another one identified somewhere to no avail. It appears to be similar to some English Staffordshire products but all I will say is it is 19th Century made in Europe.

Update

I finally saw another one identified as Staffordshire from the mid-19th century.

Staffordshire Hunting Scene Well And Tree Platter, Ca. 1840

A large Staffordshire blue and white well and tree platter with a scene of a dog flushing a bird from shrubbery. Made in the 1st half of the 19th Century. It has no maker’s mark. Its big enough to serve a whole turkey or a large ham on and suitable for display.
