The Fancy Fox

Description

A pretty Worcester porcelain large fluted sugar bowl and cover, c.1780-1785. Possibly decorated in the atelier of James Giles with fine gilded decoration of intricate swags and garlands pendent from bows. This frieze runs around the cover edge and more unusually to the inside of the bowl. The outside of the bowl and inner area of the cover are decorated with a simple scattering of gilded stars and both pieces are finished with gilded rims and a gilt knop to the cover. Unmarked, c.1780.

It measures 12.2cm (4 3/4") high and 12.2cm (4 3/3") wide.

In excellent condition. There is a small slither chip to the rim of the flange of the cover that sits hidden inside the bowl. No other damage, repair or restoration. Some minor handling wear to the knop and rims but minimal otherwise.
