Description
Large Westcott milk or cream pitcher, forest gnomes motifs. A very rare Royal Doulton Gnome Seriesware Westcott milk jug or cream pitcher. Polychrome. Pattern D4697, Series B. Scene 1: Six gnomes peering out from tree roots, colorful mushrooms with gilt decorations in motifs of flowers, spiderwebs, and nighttime stars. Inspired by Arthur Rackham's illustrations for "Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens" (1906). Known as Gnomes in the UK, the seriesware was also referred to as Munchkins in the US, after L. Frank Baum's popular little people in the Wizard of Oz stories. Produced at Doulton�s Burslem factory. This piece is featured in "Royal Doulton Series Ware, Volume 3, Doulton in the Nursery," Pp. 29, 31 (1986). The Gnomes pattern was Doulton's answer to Wedgwood�s Fairyland Lustreware.
