This is really a
pretty one, excellent colors and details. I think the
beak tip has a restoration and there is some type of
restoration at the base of the tail, where it attached to
the body. I purchased it as such. Looking inside the body it
does not appear to have any breaks - I honestly cannot tell
what has been done to it, as it looks perfect, the glaze
just feels a bit different. There is a little bit of
spotting inside the next and some wear to the orange on the
high points on the next. It has a very good "ring" when
tapped, both the hen and the nest. It is a large one,
9" long, 8" to top of tail. c1860

Very pretty antique Staffordshire Hen
dish with baby chicks. Overall is good. The beak and
some of the scallops on the dish have been professionally
touched up, it shows perfectly and there was no major
damage. It has a bit of staining to the dish, it smells like
old butter. I suspect it has been used to store butter. I
have not tried to clean it up, because of the repairs. The
repairs are very minor, there are and were no cracks. It is
a good solid piece. 7" to top of tail, 8" long.
Good early piece, c 1860

Excellent large Jackfield hen on orange
nest. Original hen to nest. Overall condition is good
and it displays perfectly! Please note that the hen only
fits on the nest in one direction, but I am sure it is the
original nest. Professional and very good restoration to a
chip on the nest. Tiny glaze flake where the tail meets the
body, can be seen in first photo. Gold and white dots remain
very good. 7 1/4" to top of tail, 8" long.

This is really a pretty one, excellent
colors and details. This one is in great condition as
far as the hens go. There is a chip to the inner rim of the
nest, it does not show when the hen is in place. There are a
few tiny glaze flakes, less than usual and not chipped, just
glaze loss. There are no restorations. Some of the white
spots are worn. It is the original hen to nest, same
markings inside hen and on bottom of base. 8" long, 7
1/2" to top of tail. c1860
