I know I said this blog would be quiet for a while as I head to Delhi, but with a few minutes to spare before going to the airport, I HAD to post this figure. A DATED Staffordshire figure is as rare as hens' teeth...and here we have one!
This pearlware bust of a rather alarmed looking Wesley (or did he have a thyroid problem?--those eyes really bulge) is marked beneath the glaze "October 23 1832." And you can find it in the stock of Martyn Edgell. www.edgell.me.uk/sales.asp
