Antique Bernard Block
Tobacco Jar
This is a handsome and collectible 19th Century Tobacco Jar by Bernard Bloch.  Bloch was a pre-eminent entrepreneur in the field of the ceramic industry, establishing the B. Bloch & Co. factory in 1869.
He gained fame with the production of figural tobacco containers such as this, characterized by detail and refined processing.  The factory was seized and sold by the Nazis during WWII.
This tobacco is in very good condition for age.  It is beautifully handpainted with glossy face and hat.  There is a tiny flea bit as a result of a factory bubble on the rear round of the left ear.  There are no cracks.  This jar measures 5 1/4 inches tall and 4 1/2 inches from tip of the chin to back of head.
