$ 3 000 – 5 000
61/2 in. (16.5 cm.) high
18 oz. 4 dwt. (566 gr.) gross weight
The arms of a widow are those of de Havilland of Guernsey impaling Le Marchant of Guernsey. It is possible the arms are for Martha Le Marchant née de Havilland (1716-1782), widow of William Le Marchant (1716-1768) as suggested by the initials on the base, however, the correct arrangement is for the arms of the wife to appear on the right. They are reversed in this instance.
