Lot 141: A Mid-20th Century Ceramic Pheasant Cruet Set
This ceramic cruet set is attributed to Carlton Ware, following the identification on an accompanying handwritten lot tag. The set comprises two stylised pheasant-shaped shakers and a matching stand. The figurines are decorated with bright polychrome glazes, featuring orange and black patterned plumage on the bodies, long yellow tails, and teal-blue heads. They are designed to sit within two circular recesses on a light green oval glazed base. The style is characteristic of British commercial art pottery from the mid-20th century. No factory marks, characters, or symbols are visible on the glazed surfaces of the items.
Condition report:
The set appears to be in good overall condition. There are no obvious chips, cracks, or signs of repair visible from the top-down perspective. The pieces are currently secured together with white string attached to an auction tag.
