Genre: Fine Arts, Photography of
'Egptian tripod. Rosso antico, or red ware; black relief. Height, 18 inches. Diameter at top of bowl, 12 inches. The only known example of this size. It is made of the same clay — that from the picturesque locality of Bradwerll Wood, lying high above Burslem — as was used by the brothers Elers for their famous tea-pots and other pieces in imitation of Japan ware. It is of good form; the purse or cup at the top, being evidently for flowers, is shallow and therefore elegant. The legs and terminal feet are well-formed, and the bas-reliefs or scarabei, lotus-leaves, sphionxes, crocodiles, and other ornaments in the Egyptian style, are most carefully and artitically modelled and finished, so that every part, even where hidden from view, will bear the closest examination.'
