Gilt and Gesso has dated this piece to the 19th Century.
The decorative table piece was originally a dining table stand to warm spoons, in this case probably desert spoons whilst now more commonly popular as decorative coffee table, desk, mantlepiece ornaments for bookcases etc.., excellent desk tidy for pens.
The turquoise seated bullfrog is characteristic of the Bermantofts model, which impressed makers stamp ‘b’ to the underside.
Whilst in mostly excellent condition and great surface to the glaze, the right hand front paw shows a small nibble, see photos.
