Thomas Whieldon Fenton Staffordshire Redware Oriental Molded Teapot
About the Item
A rare English Staffordshire redware pottery teapot decorated with Oriental molded patterning by Thomas Whieldon, Fenton and dating circa 1760/70. The teapot is lightly and finely potted with a barrel shaped body, loop handle and long straight pouring spout. The teapot is decorated with finely detailed Oriental figures, one holding a bird sat on a perch and the other a parasol. The figures are set between pillars with pagoda styled tops with a scroll pattern containing a dragon head above. The cover is similarly decorated and the teapot is based on those originating from China and made from Yixing red clay. These are said to produce the best infusion for tea and are normally unglazed, as is this example. The teapot has a pseudo Chinese impressed seal mark to the base.
The teapot has a stabilized hairline running around the top edge of the body but is otherwise in exceptional condition for its age and with minor loss to the decoration. There is a tiny surface rim chip to the cover but certainly one of the best examples we have seen and a highly presentable piece.

- Staffordshire Georgian Two Pearlware Religious Printed Childs Plates with VerseBy StaffordshireLocated in Bishop's Stortford, HertfordshireTwo fine English Georgian, probably Staffordshire, child’s pearlware plates decorated with religious scenes and verse dating from the early 19th century. The finely potted plates are of octagonal shape both with relief molded fruit and floral designs to the rim, one hand painted and other simply glazed rim but with a pink lustre edge. Due to the edge patterning being the same we believe the plates to have originated from the same pottery. Both plates have printed religious scenes to the center with printed prayers, possibly as teaching aids for children. One has a scene of Christ rising from the dead with a prayer reading ‘Behold him rising from the grave. Behold him raised on high. He pleads his merit there to save Transgressor doom’d to die.’ The scene shows soldiers, some sleeping around the entrance to the tomb. The second plate shows a child reading...Category
