An Assembled Pair of Bennington Poodles with Baskets

Lyman Fenton & Company. Bennington, Vermont (1849-1858).
Pottery with flint enamel Rockingham glaze.
Excellent condition, minor manufacturing flaws including firing separations to belly and a minor repair to one foot.
A wonderful example of opposing standing poodles with coleslaw fur, posed grasping baskets filled with applied fruit on coleslaw grass with a mottled brown glaze.
