Tolkien's "The Fellowship of the Ring", the first of the three volumes that make up the epic "The Lord of the Rings". Face Pot is from a large Kevin Francis collection. Hand written notation on box reading "Merlin Proto". Excellent condition. No chips, cracks or crazing observed. Displays very well, as depicted. Fitting snugly into the palm of your hand, Face Pots were introduced in 2000 by Kevin Pearson and the art pottery team of Kevin Francis. Drawing on 18th Century Netsuke design combined with the best of art pottery and the English toby jug tradition, they became an immediate success and introduced a whole new genre of pottery commemoratives. Designed by top ceramic sculptors, each Face Pot is handmade and hand-painted in Stoke-on-Trent, England and made to the same high standard as traditional Kevin Francis releases. Each Pot contains a quote from (or associated with) the character portrayed. A studio pottery approach resulted in limited production numbers of each Pot.
