Maker: Pratt  Pattern: Native Scenery

F and R Pratt of Fenton, Staffordshire produced their Native Scenery from about 1880 to 1920. It is the same design as Native made by W Adams of Stoke in the 1820s and it seems likely that Pratts acquired the printing plates from the Adams factory at some point and re-introduced the pattern as Pratts Native Scenery. The scene is believed to depict Lady Eleanor Butler and Miss Sarah Ponsonby known as The Ladies of Llangollen who lived together in north Wales from 1790 to 1831. This short candlestick comes complete with an integral draught shield. Inside and outside the draught shield is a delightful scene of a horse and four figures, with a pretty floral border around the rim, candle sconce and along the handle. All over crazing.
