Pichet Toby personnage Royal Doulton boutiques le cardinal

From the Royal Doulton in England is this ceramic jug in the shape of Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, a figure from Shakespeares play Henry Vill, often depicted with a distinctive hat and robe. This was handcrafted by Charles Noke in 1939 of glazed earthenware. It measures approximately 2.25" tall x 2.25" long x almost 4" from nose to handle. Its in excellent condition and has the Royal Doulton stamp still on the back. A neat fact is that the early Cardinals had dark brown hair while the ones made later have either gray or white hair. Please look carefully at all of the pictures and let me know if you have any questions.
