I PURCHASED THESE CATS RECENTLY FROM A GARAGE SALE.  I DO NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT THEM ,EXCEPT THEY ARE IN THE STAFFORDSHIR STYLE.  UNDER THE LIGHT THERE IS CRAZING  VISIBLE.

it has flowers and faces top bottom and middle,has scroll work alll over it.but i only found the 1

Called the Chess Game (although there are 5 women in the picture) with a man playing chess

I have been searching various sites and am unable to find a similar pot as the one described. Could possibly be of a rare pot and a few were only made. What i was able to find out of the bottom hallmark, is that its an Imperial Russian hallmark ( double headed crowned eagles, one lef holding a stick, the other leg holding what looks to be a round circle with a cross on top.

I was also told that this pot was used as a drinking pot back in the 1800's not as a planter.

Can anyone assist on telling what this pot is valued at? or can anyone find one similar?

The Prairie Barn" stands like a sentinel, tall and proud. Hargrove has endowed this old barn with a timeless dignity. The simple stark image is very reflective of the artist's early period and it led to early comparisons to Edward Hopper and Andrew Wyeth. "The Prairie Barn" was released in 1978 as a 20 x 24, Open Edition Serigraph on canvas and each was hand enhanced by the artist. Due to the popularity, two additional sizes were introduced: 8 x 10 and 12 x 16.
