James Neale & Co.
(Manufacturer)
Creamware painted in enamels
Cream earthenware, moulded, covered with very slightly blue-tinted lead-glaze, and painted in yellow, brownish-yellow, two shades of green, pale purplish-pink, dark purplish-pink, and black enamels. The closed underside has a circular ventilation hole in the centre. The base is square with straight sides, and a moulded upper edge with a dark purplish-pink line running round it. Spring is represented by a fair-haired girl seated on a grassy mound with a shell on its back and rococo style scrolls on the front. She holds a basket of polychrome flowers and foliage in her left arm and holds a rose in her right which rests on her breast. She has a broad-brimmed hat with a green edged hat-band, pompom ornament and edge, and wears a purplish-pink bodice, a white skirt with scattered purplish-pink flowers, and border round the hem, black shoes, with red pompoms on top
