Circular with a broad rim, deep sides, and almost flat centre. Decorated in the middle with busts of a woman with her hair dressed in ringlets and wearing a necklace and a crown, and a man with a long wig, probably Catherine of Braganza and Charles I. Above and between their heads is a rosette, and below, a winged motif. The sides of the well are decorated with a zig-zag slightly curved line forming triangles, and the rim has a trellis border, broken at the bottom by a rectangular panel enclosing the name THOMAS.TOFT reference exhibition-3312 adlib-exhibition-3312 4c3c3696-a861-334e-a4fe-c4c9c0d65aff Magdalene Odundo: The Journey of Things reference exhibition-3684 adlib-exhibition-3684 3c4edd64-75a0-39f4-9870-391d613366c2 Magdalene Odundo in Cambridge C.207-1928 1 accession number C.207-1928 73072 priref 73072 Glaisher MS Catalogue, vol. 17 old object number 3644 uri https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/73072 https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/73072 on front slip-trailing THOMAS.TOFT maker's name reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Dr. J.W.L.

The slip-trailed trellis border is typical of these large dishes, but some examples have male heads, tulips, or rosette-like motifs. Thomas Toft is the most famous of the seventeenth-century Staffordshire slipware potters, but very little is known about his life. He was probably the Thomas Toft who married in 1663, paid Hearth Tax at the village of Stanley in 1663, and 1666, and was buried at Stoke on 3 December 1689. Over thirty dishes bearing his name have been recorded but a few of them may have been made by his son, also Thomas Toft. What Toft senior made other than dishes is largely conjectural. Only four pieces of hollow ware bearing his name are known, among them a small jug in the Fitzwilliam Museum (C.1-1937). reference term-107696 adlib-term-107696 73d598b5-9f18-3ba8-93d4-b1d02583d300 Charles II reference term-118735 adlib-term-118735 1631bde8-d0c4-3507-be3b-ac03c59ba807 17th Century, second half reference term-107658 adlib-term-107658 824d3ecf-92c1-33aa-8d45-2f0239317270 literal England England country Staffordshire reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Depth cm 7 Diameter cm 44 reference media-209474 adlib-media-209474 a628b208-91b7-3f65-9fdf-cdde0ceb7988 jpeg aa/aa38/large_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 810 width pixels 1024 1742599414082 1 image jpeg aa/aa38/mid_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 396 width pixels 500 1742599414082 1 image jpeg aa/aa38/C_207_1928_201810_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 811 width pixels 1025 1742599414082 1 image jpeg aa/aa38/preview_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 198 width pixels 250 1742599414082 1 image 0 media image reference media-39069 adlib-media-39069 dc943665-701f-373f-932c-89d1d3cdbe1b jpeg aa/aa7/C_207_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742582759626 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/mid_C_207_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742582759626 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/C_207_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742582759626 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/preview_C_207_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742582759626 1 image 1 media image reference media-3442737947 portfolio portfolio-media-3442737947 5bd5eeea-727e-3fe4-a547-044e94f8c943 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/130/large_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 810 width pixels 1024 1560507181000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/130/mid_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 396 width pixels 500 1560507181000 1 image C.207-1928_201810_adn21_dc1.jpg 1560507181000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/130/preview_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 198 width pixels 250 1560507181000 1 image 2 media image reference media-361890582 portfolio portfolio-media-361890582 0065f376-8ac7-3dbc-8e60-f2480d967583 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/133/large_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 810 width pixels 1024 1560509637000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/133/mid_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 396 width pixels 500 1560509637000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/133/C_207_1928_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 4573 width pixels 5781 1560509637000 1 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/133/preview_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 198 width pixels 250 1560509637000 1 image 3 media image reference media-524868625 portfolio portfolio-media-524868625 7c9c268d-ca00-3ad9-b6fd-d7293f89b716 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/40/975/large_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 810 width pixels 1024 1695946182000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/40/975/mid_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 396 width pixels 500 1695946182000 1 image C.207-1928_201810_adn21_mas.tif 1695946182000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/40/975/preview_C_207_1928_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 198 width pixels 250 1695946182000 1 image 4 media image reference term-90855 adlib-term-90855 b48207ec-774d-3e3e-8ab3-536996bc5dac dish charger history note J.E.
