15 Pieces of Rare Antique Thomas Forester & Sons Darby Phoenix China Ware

Posted by admin On May 4, 2023

15 Pieces of Superb Rare Antique (1920s) English Thomas Forester & Sons “Darby” Phoenix China Ware. Lovely Imari pattern and all in almost perfect condition. The gold gilding is intact and all pieces are free from damage without chips, cracks or crazing. Thomas Forester started business at a small works in the High Street, Longton and he soon took additional premises in Church Street. He demolished the Church Street Works and built the Phoenix works which he completed in 1879. In the beginning of 1883 he took his sons Herbert and Victor into partnership. The company started as Thomas Forester in the 1870s and appeared in the Pottery Gazette regularly during the 1880s. They specialised in the manufacturing of majolica and earthenware. The business was incorporated as a Limited Company in 1891 and by 1893 it was recorded as employing 520 people at the “Imperial and Phoenix Works”. In 1900, the company employed over 700 people in the Staffordshire area and was seen as one of the largest producers of majolica in England in the late 1800s. In their prime, the company had showrooms in London, Paris, Berlin and Vienna. This was due to a combination of World War II when production was very limited and by the Clean Air Act that was introduced in 1956. This move stopped the use of bottle ovens and the business finally closed in June 1959. The work of Thomas Forester & Sons is still present today in the form of antiques. Pre-1900 the company was known for producing a vast range of Majolica. Techniques were later improved, which led to the production of many elaborate art pottery designs including Trogon Ware during the 1920s and 1930s.

Rare EARLY Antique vtg French Pre WWII Chess Pieces set Box Hand Carved Lardy

Posted by admin On November 21, 2019

This is a very rare and hard to find complete, hand carved set with board and Box. You can see in the photo of the two light colored knights where the jowel lines are different, there are other small carving differences as well but this is the easiest to see. It is a complete set, the kings measure 76mm (about 3 tall). The knights also have the typical Lardy flat heads and are two pieces on the knights. They are solid wood and the lighter pieces have a beautiful honey glow to the. They are also weighted and have a very nice feel. I believe this may be a very early French Lardy set. The pieces are in excellent condition, the board has one place that has a paint rub on it. I have not tried to remove it. Otherwise everthing else is in near perfect condition with very little wear.
