They were modelled by Tebo. Josiah Wedgwood wrote to Bentley in London on 5th November, 1774, `Mr Tebo, our new modeller, did not return here of some days after me, I am glad he did not for he would have made a shocking ugly thing of the lamp, if he had been left to himself.' (MS E.25-18561) On the 16th he wrote again, 'Mr Tebo is modelling the two lamps from St. Non but goes on very slowly'(MS E.25-18564).referenceterm-113623adlib-term-11362387ef9eaf-54a8-3838-8337-94dbf03aad62literalEnglandEnglandcountryliteralStaffordshireStaffordshireregionEtruriareferenceterm-42807adlib-term-4280739fbe2f8-78d1-3f75-a8ca-2643967b2f2dblack basaltHeightcm22.8Lengthcm28.2referencemedia-11371adlib-media-11371f4034475-9339-3a8c-aa7a-8d5ec206d351jpegaa/aa8/MAR_C_3_1912_281_29.jpg1heightpixels550widthpixels76017029264773011imagejpegaa/aa8/mid_MAR_C_3_1912_281_29.jpg1heightpixels362widthpixels50017029264773011imagejpegaa/aa8/MAR_C_3_1912_281_29.jpg1heightpixels550widthpixels76017029264773011imagejpegaa/aa8/preview_MAR_C_3_1912_281_29.jpg1heightpixels181widthpixels25017029264773011image0media
