£1,500    $2,024    €1,751
A rare 18th-century Derby porcelain “Fable Candlestick” from around 1760, modelled with two finches among a richly flowered bocage and a small dog below, set on a rococo scroll base enriched with gilt and green detail. The piece belongs to the Pale Family period of Derby production (1756–1769), recognised for its soft enamel tones and refined sculptural style.
 
A directly comparable example is held by the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, Candlestick, c.1765, Derby Porcelain Factory — see catalogue entry: https://collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O332184/candlestick-candlestick-derby-porcelain-factory/
 
. Other examples of this model are preserved in the British Museum and the Bowes Museum, Barnard Castle.
 
Such early Derby works are admired for their expressive Rococo modelling, narrative charm, and importance in the evolution of English porcelain sculpture.
