Artone Miniature Hand-Painted Character Jug of a Lawyer

An Artone miniature hand-painted ceramic character jug depicting a legal figure, likely a barrister or judge. The piece is modelled as the head and shoulders of a man wearing a traditional white curled periwig, finished with a purple ribbon bow at the reverse. He is dressed in a black coat with a white cravat. The handle is cleverly designed in the form of a rolled white legal scroll. The base bears a printed circular backstamp featuring an artist’s palette and two brushes, with the text ARTONE ENGLAND HAND PAINTED clearly legible.

Height: approximately 5.5 cm.
