This is a fine, early stoneware beaker by the Doulton artist Rosina Brown, made at the Lambeth factory and dates to 1879 – see back -stamp. It is depicted in a tapering beaker form with a silver-plated rim and decorated with fine and intricate hand incised and painted images of stylised seaweed and floral motifs with lovely, applied bead work and floral buttons rendered on a stippled cream ground separated by two applied bead and block bands. While the base is stamped with the above mentioned Doulton Lambeth factory marks, as well as Brown’s monogram and other impressed marks – see photographs and details. It measures 5 1/2″ (14cm) H x 3 1/2″ (9cm) W approx; and is in excellent condition with no defect at all to report, even the plate is good (in fact it looks not to have been used as do all of the pieces I’ve recently bought from a collection which I’ll listing over the next couple of weeks) – see photographs and details. This is a wonderful rare early piece of period Doulton Lambeth stoneware by a fine artist which is in great condition and with a low start price should get considerable interest from all Doulton collectors.
