Manufacturer: Ironstone
Here is a large white ironstone tureen, 13 inches long by 8 inches tall.

I think this is Paris Shape, a design with a prominent gourd or melon finial, panels with everted ribs, and foliates under the finial and scrolled handles. It is larger than a vegetable tureen; it probably was intended for stew.
Usually, this shape has the Alcock mark; however, this one bears the Bridgwood and Clarke, Burslem, mark and dates to the late 1850's.
Condition is excellent, no chips, cracks, hairlines, stains, or restorations. |
