This is a really lovely antique white pottery chicken or hen on a nest dish.   

These little quirky dishes would have been used in farmhouses or cottages to store little eggs - or simply as decorative items on a Welsh dresser.   

The little hen is made from pottery with white glossy glaze to the top section. The chicken has little bits of the original gold gilding on some of its feathers, as photographs, and in particular around the head. There is red original paintwork around the eyes. Mrs Hen is sitting on her eggs awaiting them to hatch out as little chicks. There is a pale green wash on the ground area below her,.

The base is original to the upper section and it fits together perfectly. The base has a matt ochre-yellow glaze exterior and a shiny white interior.  

It is a fine antique example dating to the late 19th Century / early 20th century. 

It is in good condition with no chips or cracks in the dish or chicken. The model is nice and clean with no dirty marks. It displays well. There is a little firing flaw (done in the making) to the top of one wing. But that is the only issue. It is not disfiguring when on display.   

Dimensions: The height of the hen to the top of her tail is roughly 7 inches (17.5 cm) – the nest section is shiny and glazed and measures: 8 1/4 x 6 1/4 x 2 1/4 inches. 

A very fair price for this most attractive and indeed very decorative example. 

The postage quoted is for Special Next Day Delivery with the Royal Mail in the UK. This will be £10 and applied at check out.
