Teapot and cover. Unidentified Staffordshire Pottery. The globular pot has a short cylindrical neck, and stands on three feet moulded in the form of a lion's mask with a paw below. It has an upward-tilting slightly curved spout and a rounded loop handle with a kick at the bottom. One side is decorated with a long bust of a man in profile to left flanked by cockerels, with below, a flowering plant flanked by a leaf and an acorn spray. On the other side there is a long bust of a woman in profile to left accompanied by similar motifs, except that the last two are transposed. There is a band of slip round the rim and inside the tip of the spout, and a splash on top of the handle. The domed cover has an acorn knob, and a small ventilation hole, and is decorated with three sprigs, a bust of a man, and two leaves. A band of cream slip encircles the edge. Red earthenware, thrown, with applied handle and spout, standing on three moulded feet, and decorated with white mould-applied sprigs, and cream slip under slightly yellowish lead-glaze.
