Incised Lion Flagon

Z890

Superb folk art redware/stoneware flagon or mug. Likely English or Scottish. Incised with a rather menacing interpretation of a royal lion. Fantastic details and character. The maker’s fingerprints are everywhere. Note the right eye in particular.

The clay is red with some white striations and could qualify as redware, though heavy like stoneware. Weighs over 2lbs. Nice old surface. A real looker.
