Plant pot, greyish hybrid-paste porcelain, of flared conical form with a moulded lip and applied ring handles; a hole in the base; fitting on to a seperate turned stand with a spreading foot; painted with a continous frieze of classical figures in a landscape, comprising harvesters and two scenes of sacrifice, one of two maidens and a child offering ewers to a statue of Ceres, the other of three maidens and a child bringing corn and fruit to a brown robed priestess at a flaming alter; all set between borders reserved with wave scrolls and foliage sprays in gilding. The stand similarly gilded. Typical Coalport pin-pricks to the body and the base spotted with traces of underglaze blue
