Description

An exceptionally fine Mid 19th Century Antique Victorian Staffordshire pottery figure, "Auld Lang Syne", H 971, one of a number of known versions of this particular group. Not often encountered, this version is not illustrated by Harding, { Victorian Staffordshire Figures 1835 - 1875 }, who remarks however of Figure 970, "There is another version of this figure { not illustrated } which is similar, except that the backs of the chairs are not showing, the gentleman on the left is wearing a kilt, not breeches, and the title is in gilt script. It is 7.5 inches high. Figure 971 has been reserved for it" ~ This figure, untitled and differing a little from Harding's description, being in fact 8.00 inches high and with a bottle rather than a jug on the table, would appear in all likelihood to be that to which he refers. Decorated in sparkling fresh colours in a typical palette, this piece, certain to arouse the admiration of Robert Burns afficionados, is guaranteed to add lustre to any Staffordshire collection.
