In comparatively good overall

much like an apothecary or confectionary jar

whilst her hair is tied with silk ribbons and adorned by colourful array of posies and she wears an emerald brooch and

one suspending a chain terminating with punch struck hexagonal weight

In 1890 Coats listed on the London Stock Exchange

Early penny arcades form the twentieth century included early forms of pinball and fortune-telling machinery of the 1930s

The piece is stable and rocks without any complaint

the sides and base with further botanical decoration featuring roses and leaves all being picked out in ruby red and midnight green over an ivory painted ground

The candle cups are slightly misshapen but appear to be original

but a few women continued to wear them until there was a revival of the Welsh costume during the 1890s

in very good overall condition

Width: 17 inches (with handles)

The feet are original to the piece though do have some repairs to them with two feet having had hairline cracks at some point
