Description

Lovely majolica cheese keep and stand by George Jones with a moulded apple blossom design set against a turquoise ground, c.1870. The lower half has a woven basket effect, matched also around the edge of the stand. The handle is formed as a split branch bound in the centre. The stand has the factory stamp and painted model number 3340 111.

It measures 26.5cm (10 1/2") high assembled. The stand is 28.5cm (11 1/4") wide and 4cm (1 1/2") high and the dome measures 23cm (9") wide and 23cm (9") high.

Condition is very good: there is a fine 2cm hairline to the rim of the cover but no other damage and no restoration. Some wear to the glaze on the high points of some of the flowers and some very small glaze losses to the rims on the stand (hidden under the cover). The stand has some light discolouration to the top and the inside of the bell is crazed again with a few small patches of light discoloration. Surface wear is light and appropriate for age and use.

Date of Manufacture

The Fancy Fox has dated this George Jones Majolica Cheese Keeper to the Victorian era.

FAQs

Victorian Majolica is a type of earthenware decorated with coloured lead-glazed enamels, popularised during the 19th century and characterised by vibrant naturalistic designs.

Majolica pieces were crafted from porous buff-coloured earthenware clay and finished with opaque tin-glazes combined with metallic oxide colourants.

Authentic pieces often feature distinct makers marks, high-relief naturalistic modelling, exceptional glaze brilliance, and specific registration diamonds or monograms associated with the factory.

This type of decorative object works well as a statement piece displayed on an open kitchen shelf, a sideboard, or as a table centrepiece to add a touch of historic craft.

Antique ceramics should be hand-washed gently using mild detergent and soft cloths, avoiding soaking, dishwashers, and abrasive scrubbers to protect the delicate lead glazes.
