Description

Antique Lenox Belleek cider pitcher with images of gulls and the sea, handpainted

Walter Scott Lenox founded his company in Trenton, New Jersey in 1889. His idea was to establish an art studio, not a factory. Lenox's Ceramic Art Company swiftly gained a good reputation. By 1897 examples of Lenox's work were included in the collection of the Smithsonian Institution.

The mark on the bottom of this pitcher indicates it was manufactured by Lenox Belleek during the period 1889 - 1906.

There is a tiny imperfection on the rim (see photo).

Height: 5 inches

Length: 9 inches
