A GEORGE III TERRACOTTA PORTRAIT MEDALLION
Eleanor Coade's 'Artificial Stone Manufactory' was established at King's Arms Stairs, Narrow Wall, Lambeth - now the site of the Royal Festival Hall. Eleanor Coade (1708-1796) and her daughter, also Eleanor (1733-1821), founded the business in partnership with a Daniel Pincot in 1769, who had been manufacturing artificial stone in Lambeth during the 1760's. Pincot is the probable vendor of 138 lots, catalogued as 'The Year's Produce of Artificial Stone Manufactory' at the newly opened Pall Mall auction rooms of James Christie on 22 and 23 December 1767. The partnership between Coade and Pincot lasted until 1771 from which point the younger Coade, for the most part, drove the business to become foremost in the field.
