Worcester Blue Scale Heart Shaped Serving Dishes

England Ca. 1770

A pair of under glaze blue scale 1st Period Worcester dishes with gold rococo scrolls and various shaped reserves of floral sprays.
About as unblemished as they come. They only have the slightest rubbing of the gold on the edge and sparsely scattered light scratches. A prize for any collection.

Fine Japanese Tall Cup and Saucers

Admittedly I know little about Japanese porcelain but I can spot quality when I see it. There is one cup or beaker and two saucers of eggshell thin porcelain. The painting over the glaze is sharply delineated with rich colors and gold. I believe it dates from the 2nd half of the 19th century.
