Lot 143
The Abraham Lomax 'St George & the Dragon' Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian plaster panel, modelled by Richard Joyce to the design of Gordon Forsyth, produced circa 1908, the elongated frieze modelled in relief showing St George slaying a coiled dragon with a distressed maiden looking on, entwined in briars, titled 'ST GEORGE A KNIGHT OF CAPPADOC[IA] PATRON SAINT OF ENGLAND' with Tudor Rose emblems, the panel signed by Lomax over the dragon's wing, otherwise apparently unmarked, in an oak frame (presumably the original), the panel measuring 41.5cm x 114cm, frame size 57cm x 130cm.This lot is offered with a signed copy of Abraham Lomax's self-published 'Royal Lancastrian Pottery 1900-1938', 1957, where this panel is illustrated, plate 5.Provenance:The Abraham Lomax Collection, thence by descent.Footnote:The period from 1904-1908 was instrumental for Pilkingtons with arguably some of their most influential designers and artists joining the company during this time and producing some of their most acclaimed pieces. The 1908 Franco-British Exhibition allowed them to showcase some of their very best works, including the large and impressively lustre fired St George and the Dragon vase, which later became part of the Anthony Cross collection, and recently sold at auction for in excess of £75,000. Even in 1908, the design was so regarded by those involved that it was felt "more use should be made of this masterpiece of art and craftmanship than just decoration of two vases", notes Lomax, who was Chemist at the pottery at the time. It is recorded that they decided to make six plaster casts in slab form which were presented to David Burton, Joseph Burton, William Mycock, Gordon Forsyth, John Chambers, and Lomax. The Chambers panel is in the collection of The Peter Scott Gallery at Lancaster University. The whereabouts of the Forsyth panel is unknown. It is believed the Mycock panel was the only one to be glazed, but has subsequently been lost, or whereabouts unknown having appeared at auction in 1973. The two Burton panels are believed to be within family collections. The original cast was retained until the 1972 by the factory, and was believed broken up at that time.The fact that the plaster panels are flat does not explain how the modelled frieze was transferred from or applied to the original vases without distortion, as this would have to have been fashioned on an arch to be wrapped around the body. Our thanks to Angela and Barry Corbett of the Pilkington's Lancastrian Pottery Society for their assistance with this lot and the whereabouts of the remaining panels.Condition report:There is a 2cm shallow chip to the bottom margin left hand corner. Elsewhere there are various firing lines as well as hairlines that have developed. The panel appears stable despite these lines. Most of the firing lines are in the border regions between the incised straight border outline and the panel's edge. The main network of hairlines drops through the first 'C' of Cappadocia and runs to the panel centre on a diagonal towards St George. It travels through the breast of the horse, then meets another firing line that runs horizontally across the middle of the panel across to the dragon. There is another hairline just behind the maiden's head, as well as other smaller hairlines elsewhere. The patina is quite yellowed across the panel, presumably through atmospheric dirt over the years with it being made of plaster. Some patches appear to have been worn so it is paler in finish and a little rougher - possibly from a cleaning agent, but not known. The frame appears contemporary but perhaps stripped as the colour to the front is a limed oak tone whereas the reverse is a darker stain.
Lot 144
Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian related items from the personal collection of Abraham Lomax, including ceramic and glaze fragments in a small tin, an oval intaglio plaster armorial crest, an off-cut of kiln off-cast, small kiln stand, a small circular dish, mottled blue-green, stamped 'P', 10.8cm diam; and a trial vase dated 1909, the shoulder painted with a border of swans between trees in a red crimson glaze against a cream ground, painted to the underside 'Trial' over the Pilkington mark, 8cm.Provenance:The Abraham Lomax Collection, thence by descent.Condition report:The nature of this lot means that the majority of the items have some chips and "damages" as they are a collection of fragments. Referring to the trial vase and small circular dish:Trial vase - heavy crazing throughout the cream ground glaze. One line to the base line could be considered a hairline. No restoration or chips. Some surface scratching. The glaze hasn't fired evenly, notably to the swan border.Dish - two shallow chips to the rim on the upper surface, one 1.5cm, the other 1cm.

Lot 147
Pilkington's Royal Lancastrian, a rare miniature 'Twiffler' vase, thrown by Edward T Radford, in orange vermillion glaze, 1cm high.Provenance:The Abraham Lomax Collection, thence by descent.Footnote:The term 'Twiffler' has been in circulation within the Pilkington Pottery since Radford was in employment as the main thrower. Lomax records them as "many small pieces being thrown" in a way to suggest and experiment with new shapes and forms under the guidance of Forsyth, who referred to them as "sketches in clay". Many shapes show the influence of Chinese vases. But calling them small pieces is somewhat of a misnomer as many are smaller than an inch, and as in this case barely a fraction of an inch. The Pilkington's Lancastrian pottery Society newsletters of March and June 2013 contain further information on these fascinating whimsical miniatures with colour plates showing a broader range of those known to exist in private collections and formerly the Monks Hall Collection in Eccles.Condition report:There is possibly a P painted to the underside of the base but not immediately evident. There is a tiny chip to the underside of the baseline, with what looks to be a small resulting hairline.
