Details

This is the kind of English porcelain that I love. Generously sized and beautifully modeled by Hammersley & Co. of Longton, the white hen sits contentedly on her nest of eggs, bringing just the right touch of charm to a table or cupboard.

Made in the early 20th century and bearing the Hammersley mark, she has all the easy elegance we love in fine Staffordshire porcelain. Display her in a cabinet, place her at the center of your table, or let her become part of a collection of favorite things throughout your home. As with many antique porcelains of this age, there is a tiny imperfection to one feather that can be felt, it doesn't detract from the charm or beauty of this exceptional Hammersley tureen. Large hen tureens in such lovely condition are becoming increasingly rare to find, which makes this one all the more special. Complimentary U.S. shipping included.

  • Measures 10" x 7-1/2" x 7-7/8"h.
