Rare Wedgwood Majolica Satyr Faun Comport Tazza

19th century
Sold 10 February 2026 · The Fancy Fox
This “Rare Wedgwood Majolica Satyr Faun Comport Tazza” found a buyer.

It was listed by The Fancy Fox. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

Very attractive piece of Victorian Wedgwood majolica. The stand modelled as a boy satyr perched on a moulded base decorated with ivy leaves and pink flowers, holding onto the body of the piece, with a marbelled patterned plate on the top. This plate does not sit precisely level and there appears some ceramic cement in the join between the 2 parts so I think the plate has been re-attached or maybe a replacement if the original was damaged. Both pieces have impressed Wedgwood marks. The stand also has various impressed letters including a three letter series that gives a date of 1878 and painted model number M2650.

It measures 20cm (8") high and 22.5cm (8 7/8") wide across the plate. The figure base is 14cm (5 1/2") by 10cm (4").

Condition is very good; there is some light surface wear to the plate; minimal to the rest and no damage, repair or restoration bar the attachment of the plate. This join has been done well and very neatly.

Majolica is a type of earthenware characterised by opaque coloured lead glazes, which reached the height of its popularity during the Victorian era following its introduction at the 1851 Great Exhibition.

Victorian majolica is typically constructed from moulded earthenware clay, finished with vibrantly coloured metallic oxide glazes fired at high temperatures to achieve its characteristic glossy surface.

Authentic pieces often feature maker marks, registration diamonds, or impressed factory numbers on the base, alongside characteristic crazing in the glaze and intricate hand-finished mould details.

Antique majolica works well as a focal point on a sideboard or mantelpiece, contrasting sharply with clean, contemporary architectural lines to highlight its rich colours and textures.

Majolica should be hand-washed gently with mild soap when necessary, avoiding abrasive scourers and harsh chemicals to protect the delicate surface glaze from scratching and staining.
