Staffordshire rabbit tureen & cover

Victorian, circa 1870. 5.3ins high, 9.1ins wide, 4.1ins depth. Staffordshire tureen with cover which features a rabbit, seated on an oval base.







We think they have possibly been matched up together at some stage because the lid does not sit perfectly on the base.

Black and white version. Dull gilt base line. Decorated 'in the round' - decoration to front and reverse.







Book reference not found.

KILN EFFECTS: over glazed chip to the inner rim;



over glazed shrinkage line to the rabbit's back.
