LONDON at one end, 26cm high x 33cm wide x 27cm deepNote: Eleanor Coade was born in Exeter in 1733, the daughter of a wool merchant. By the 1760s she was living in London and in 1769 she went into partnership with Daniel Pincot, who was already involved in producing artificial stone in south London. The pair soon fell out, and in 1771 Coade partnered instead with the sculptor John Bacon, whose accomplished designs and workmanship helped to establish the Coade Artificial Stone Company as the leading firm in its field.
