Yes, the horses/knights would be on the white side

So, if we're assuming these are all part of a chess set, which piece is this one?

well that's the chess theory disproved

Err...its the queen from the Elizabethan themed chess set? Embarrassed

by **22 Crawford St.** Tue 09 Jan 2018, 10:34 pm

It does not preclude my theory

by **NaomiM** Tue 09 Jan 2018, 10:40 pm

A black Castle/Rook, maybe - especially with that ruff

The little king on the far right could be a Pawn

Yes that link would be a WHITE King and Queen Excellent

I'm not saying everything he sold was part of a chess set or the same set, just that in the distant past it might have been part of the idea. Obviously there seems to be a lot more kings and queens about but that only natural. People only buy one or two and they are the most popular.

by **dantheman** Wed 10 Jan 2018, 10:14 pm

there seems to be a lot of royalty but very few other pieces

by **22 Crawford St.** Wed 10 Jan 2018, 10:25 pm

Up! I did not say it was a good idea or a popular one.

by **NaomiM** Wed 10 Jan 2018, 11:10 pm

As I see it, we have found the King, Queen, Bishop, Knights, Rook and Pawn.

Small jug with matt glazes (if that's the right term). Incised "L. Stockley" "Weymouth" "6".

The decoration is a Dragon/Viking longboat with shields impressed. The dragon has a blue eye and it's tongue out/mouth open.

by **studio-pots** Thu 29 Apr 2021, 5:40 pm

Do you or anyone else know anything about Leonard?

by **Silver Pete** Thu 29 Apr 2021, 7:28 pm

Leonard Stockley is new to me. I bought it because I have a thing about jugs! I just seem to collect them. I have no idea how old it is, possibly 70s. I'm not even sure where it was made. Any info will be gratefully received.
