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

Pair Needle Work Pictures, Ca. 1830

A pair of allegorical subject needlework pictures on silk with water colors. They are bright and fresh as the day they were done. One may portray Rebecca at the well. It is very uncommon to find examples in this condition. The gilded frames appear to be 19th century.
