Old Hall ceramic leg of lamb dish by Christopher Dresser

Created in the 19th century by Christopher Dresser (1834–1904) for the English manufacturer Old Hall, based in Staffordshire between 1861 and 1886, this antique Victorian-era ceramic leg-of-lamb dish elegantly exemplifies 19th-century British craftsmanship. The piece is adorned with a transferware decoration depicting the ‘Mother Hubbard’ motif.
