finely detailed English ceramic character tankard designed by T. H. Sandland for Lancaster & Sandland. The body features vibrant, hand-painted high-relief depictions of Charles Dickens' iconic characters, Sairey Gamp and Tony Weller, set against a classic architectural tavern backdrop with a sculpted lamp-post handle. The rim is fitted with an EPNS (Electroplated Nickel Silver) metal collar, and the underside showcases an embossed Dickensian tavern relief alongside full maker backstamps.

Condition: The piece presents well with light, age-appropriate surface wear, fine glaze crazing, and minor tarnishing to the metal collar, remaining free of major chips or structural cracks.

Dimensions: 12.5 cm H
