Tea canister, slip-cast red stoneware with gilt-metal mounts, made by David and John Philip Elers, Staffordshire, 1690-1698.

The size of these little canisters [13cm high] and the tiny teapots reflects the very high price of tea in this period.

The pastel hues look more like watercolor than oil paint. This looks like a copy of a Van Gogh not an original by him !
