The Fancy Fox

Description

A pretty 18th century Derby porcelain press moulded cream jug of "dolphin ewer" form. Nice, crisp shell moulding, shaped rim and double scrolled handle with kicked up thumb rest. Beautifully painted with sprays of garden flowers in lovely, bright enamels: orange red, turquoise, pink, purple, yellow, green and blue and finished with a red-brown rim. c.1760.

It measures 9.5cm (3 3/4") high to the handle, 11.5cm (4 1/2") spout to handle and 6.1cm (2 3/8") wide.
