An English stoneware garden urn on pedestal,
in the Gothic taste, c.1845-80, by James Pulham,
the octagonal section vase with an everted rim and cast to the body with blind trefoils, above a knopped socle foot and plinth, the square section pedestal cast with blind quatrefoils to each face, the plinth bearing the maker's stamp "PULHAM, TERRA COTTA, BROXBOURNE, HERT"
James Pulham 1820-98 took on the running of his father's casting business in 1838 and moved it from Tottenham to Broxbourne by around 1843. The firm specialised in the production of cement-based artificial stone as well as the clay-based artificial stone seen here. Pulham senior had learned his trade at Eleanor Coade's works in Lambeth.
