Worcester Teapot, Ca. 1780

England Ca. 1780

An attractive late 18th century gold and white teapot, though unmarked is undoubtedly a product of the Worcester manufactory. The ribbed barrel form is decorated with gold swags.
This would make a very good shelf piece at a low cost as one side has had the gold heavily rubbed.

Price

$230

Condition

No repairs but heavy rubbing of the gold on one side and the handle.

Measurements

4 7/8" high, 7 3/4" long, 4 3/8 wide

Worcester Attributed Floral Painted Porcelain Plates, Ca. 1770

Though unmarked, these look like the work of the Worcester Factory as the angled foot rim had the glaze wiped from it before firing. The rim has a basket weave pattern and a single dark brown line. The central portion is decorated with various flowers including roses, pansies, tulips and morning glories.
