English George Jones – Majolica Ceramics – Sardine Box with Turquoise Ground

,

A gorgeous example of Victorian British Majolica Ceramics by George Jones c1861-1873. The Sardine Box lid has a myriad layers of seaweed upon which are 3 realistically modelled sardines. The base of the box consists of a beautiful turquoise ground and frieze of vertical seaweed spikes. The inside of both the lid and box is in a lovely soft lilac/pink ground. The George Jones stamp CJ is on the “marbled marine coloured” base. A great example of George Jones whose works vie with Minton and Wedgewood for some of the best Victorian Majolica ever produced.

Length 5.75″ x Width 5″ x Height 3.5″ ( included the relief on the the lid)

NOTE: The Sterling Sardine Server pictured is Not Included but appears as a separate listing. The original concept ” Sardine Box ” had a matching plate, sadly many of which have been lost over the years.
