Vase with Three Lions – Worcester Porcelain Manufactory

乌斯特瓷器1768 – 1770

The great ceramic decorator Jefferyes O′Neale produced some of the Worcester factory′s most impressive and memorable works. O′Neale is best known for his ceramic pieces decorated with scenes inspired by the English illustrator Francis Barlow′s Aesop′s Fables.

Probably born in Ireland in 1734, by the 1750s he was living in London and working as a china painter at the Chelsea Porcelain Factory. He later moved to Worcester where he worked as an independent decorator. This stunning vase has all the hallmarks of O′Neale′s work: heart-shaped reserves, mauve clouds, faceted rocks, blue mountains, leggy tree canopies and lively animals, all rendered with an illustrator′s whimsy.
