ANTIQUE PORCELAIN FIGURES: Derby Figures, Bow Figure, Staffordshire Figures

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

ANTIQUE PORCELAIN FIGURES: Derby Figures, Bow Figure, Staffordshire Figures

A rare Bow Figure of a Thames
waterman, 1753—55, standing in
brown-trimmed yellow cap and coat over
floral waistcoat, his head turned to
sinister, his left arm outstretched before
a tree-stump, on a floral painted base,
cap chipped, left hand restored, 20cm.;

Until the construction of Westminster Bridge in 1750 the only two means of crossing the Thames on foot had been by London Bridge and at Kingston. To cross in the intervening gap

one would have to use the horse-ferry or one of the many Thames watermen, their numbers presumably remained much the same since the time of Pepys when about 4,000 were recorded.

Pepys allowed a regular waterman of his to grace his boat with his own coat-of-arms. Is it possible that such a ‘by appointment’ badge accounts for the coat-of-arms on the

waterman’s arm which differs from a similar figure illustrated by Elizabeth Adams and David Redstone, Bow Porcelain, plate 127. Although heraldically incorrect the present

figure’s badge is perhaps intended as the seal of the Navy Office.

A near Pair of Bow Figures, circa
1760, he wearing a pale-puce jacket and
knee-length breeches, finely enameled
in characteristic blue, puce and green

yellow cloak on similar base, restored and
chipped, 13cm.;

A Bow Model of a Putt, circa 1760, standing garlanded in flowers, on circular base, restored, 13cm.; 5in.

A Pair of Derby Figures of street
vendors, 1760—65, the ‘Jewish peddler’

coat over a long flower sprigged
waistcoat, a basket containing bottles
before him, his companion standing with
an open trinket box and wearing a short
red and green tunic over her purple

A Pair of Derby Figures of a boy

young grape harvester carrying a full
basket on his back wearing a puce jacket
and flower sprigged knee breeches, the
latter as a young girl with skates on her
feet and wrapped in a fur cape, both on
scroll molded bases, feathered in
turquoise green and picked out in
fielding, his arm glued, chips to both, approx.
3cm.;

behind him, 15.5cm.; 61Ain., crossed batons, ‘S’ and Win purple.
