Item Description / Dealer Expertise
A large size pair of Staffordshire pearlware figures of Joseph, Mary and Jesus in their Flight and return from Eygpt.
This model is the largest version produced of this popular subject in the first quarter of the 19th century.
The large scale of the figures gives them strong presence which is heightened by the detailed modelling and strong application of the enamel colours.
These figures are rare especially a pair.
