Antique Ironstone Lion Mould

I’ll be honest; I couldn’t work out the pattern on the base of this lovely antique stoneware mould! I would need to make a blancmange or some pate to see for certain but Google says it’s a lion! White with crazing and crackles, but a great size for those teatime experiments or storing garlic bulbs, candles or cotton reels! Repurpose and plant herbs and keep on your kitchen windowsill. Measures 5.75ins wide x 4ins tall.
