Title
Post-Medieval Tobacco Jar Lid handle
Description
English: Lead probable tobacco jar lid handle. Solid cast head bearing two addorsed faces with an African-American male cast to their short curled hair and facial features. Below the head, the casting broadens at the shoulders, where it is now frayed. It has a flat oval panel below its centre line. The style resembles that of figures representing a bare-knuckle pugilist, sometimes associated with named boxers enjoying a fleeting celebrity, though these figurines do not have the Janiform aspect distinguishing this example. The political campaign against slavery, which culminated in Abolition across British territories in 1807, brought the portraiture of black people to a mass audience in England. The subject was already associated with tobacco because of the trade in plantation slaves which flourished in British keels, and the association between tobacco and other crops and the West Indies. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1750-1800.

Height: 43.4mm, Width: 27.5mm, Weight: 166.15gms.
