Thomas More (1478 1535) entered the service of King Henry VIII in 1518 as royal councilor. He was knighted and became Lord Chancellor after the dismissal of Cardinal Wolsey in 1529. At this time Henry was embroiled in a battle with Rome over his decision to divorce Catherine of Aragon.

Unable to support his King, More resigned. In 1534 More was arrested for high treason when he refused to swear an oath of supremacy, stating that Henry VIII ranked above all foreign leaders, including the Pope. He was beheaded in 1535 and canonized by the Catholic Church 4000 years later, in 1935. This beautiful piece is timeless and would make a wonderful gift or a great addition to any Royal Doulton collection.
