Description

Charming George Jones majolica tray with a fox creeping out of the foot rim and over the edge on one side and his tail wrapped around the foot of the dish and up over the rim on the other. The dish features a turquoise ground, ochre rim and overlapping moulded maple leaves. Very finely modeled detail to the fox facial features, paws and texture of the fur. Fully marked to the back with the George Jones seal mark and diamond registration stamp. Design registered in 1869, the printed mark is a bit obscure but I think it shows a date letter for this year also.

Reference: George Jones Ceramics 1861-1951, Cluett, plate 38.

It measures 29cm (11 3/4") wide, 25.5cm (10") deep and 10cm (4") high.

Condition is excellent: the tip of the fox's left ear has been professionally and invisibly restored. No damage or other restoration and minimal surface wear, a small firing line across the tail, a very nice example.

Date of Manufacture

The Fancy Fox has dated this Victorian Majolica Fox Dish to the 19th Century.

FAQs

Victorian majolica is a type of colourful, lead-glazed earthenware that gained immense popularity during the mid-to-late 19th century, famously showcased at the Great Exhibition of 1851.

Majolica is crafted from earthenware clay, molded into complex three-dimensional shapes, and coated with opaque tin-lead glazes infused with metal oxides to produce vibrant hues.

Authentic pieces often feature crisp relief moulding, characteristic coloured glazes pooling in recesses, and sometimes makers marks or registration diamonds on the unglazed base.

Majolica items add rich colour and texture when displayed on open shelving, sideboards, or coffee tables, pairing well with both neutral modern backdrops and traditional settings.

Antique majolica should be hand-washed gently in lukewarm water using mild detergent when necessary, avoiding abrasive materials and prolonged soaking to protect the glaze.
