Rare Doulton Miniature Mark V. Marshall Designed Bird 1905

MARSHALL DESIGNED BIRD – 1905. This is a wonderful and I would think very rare stoneware miniature figure of a bird designed by one to the Doulton factory’s leading artist/designers Mark V. Marshall at the Lambeth works in the first decade of the 20th. Century (I think 1905 – see back mark). In a stylised bird form it is depicted in a deep cobalt blue with the high points in a lighter shade to give it a further three dimensional effect. The base has the above mentioned impressed Royal Doulton mark and the’d’ number’2417′ (1905) – see detailed photographs. It measures 3″ (7.5cm) H x 2 3/4″ (7cm) L approx; and is in very good condition with only a couple of very tiny frits to the raised rim around the left eye to report (although they look large in the pics, in reality are hardly noticeable), apart from this there are no other chips, cracks, or restoration – again see photographs and details. Marshall, like Tinworth and the Barlow sisters, was at Doulton from its inseption and his work is now regarded as some of the finest to have emerged not only from the Doulton factory but english potting in general. This is a lovely, rare piece of period miniature Doulton ceramics by one of their very best designers that’s in great condition and with a low start price should attract a good deal of attention from all collectors.
