Lot 657: A Group of Falcon Ware and Decorative Ceramic Tableware and a Folk Art Figure
A group of ceramic tableware and a decorative figure, featuring a large footed bowl by Falcon Ware and various coordinating ceramic pieces. The group includes a small jug decorated with a transfer-print equestrian scene depicting two figures on horseback under a blue sky, and a small footed dish with a matching blue-tinted rim and floral sprig decoration. The principal ceramic item is a larger footed bowl finished with an orange-to-cream gradient ground and decorated with purple floral sprigs. The base of this bowl features a circular black printed mark reading ENGLAND above a central monogram consisting of the letters J, G, and L, set over a banner reading FALCON WARE. The base also bears a hand-painted number 5064 in blue. Accompanying the ceramics is a decorative folk art style figure of an elderly woman in traditional rural dress, comprising a molded and painted face, lace-trimmed cap, floral waistcoat, and a green patterned skirt with a blue apron. The figure is depicted holding a set of metal handheld scales with a single pan suspended by chains.
