James Sadler Country Life Biscuit Barrel
This James Sadler afternoon tea biscuit barrel is a blue and white ceramic jar with a lidded body and an arched cane handle. The oval body is decorated with a pastoral scene framed by a moulded border, showing trees, a cottage, cattle and a figure beside a stream. The lid carries a floral pattern and a raised bow-shaped finial, and two small side lugs sit either side of the handle. The piece is presented as part of the Country Life range, with the cane handle giving it a traditional afternoon tea character.
Condition and Collectability
The biscuit barrel is offered in the condition shown, with no obvious chips or cracks evident on the visible surfaces. The cane handle appears to be in place and the lid appears to sit on the body. The blue and white decoration is clear and well defined across the body and lid. Buyers interested in James Sadler wares or blue and white country scene ceramics may appreciate this piece as a decorative item for a kitchen, dresser or tea table.
