    Portuguese, c. 1865-87

    This beautiful green ewer and bowl set is designed and crafted in the style popularised by the celebrated French ceramicist Palissy. The ewer is of traditional form, with a bulbous body and waisted neck above a flared mouth topped by a cover. The ewer sits in a circular bowl. The body of the ewer is moulded as coarse, mossy ground, which is home to lizards and frogs, including a large green glazed lizard that forms the handle, while the removable cover is surmounted by a glazed toad. The underside of the piece is stamped for Mafra, a famed nineteenth-century Portuguese ceramicist.
