A Worcester porcelain basket of oval shape with pierced walls with grooved straps and scalloped rim to create a woven effect. Daisy flowers applied to the intersections and rope twist moulded handles to each end with ornate terminals of individually applied leaves, flowers and buds. Of unusually small size, it is still practical but much daintier than the usual similarly formed Worcester baskets. The inside is printed with the pine cone pattern with diaper and garland border to the rim. The handles and applied flowers and leaves are all hand painted with blue highlights. Unmarked, c.1775.

It measures 17.8cm (7") by 15cm (5 7/8") wide and 7.2cm (2 7/8") high.

Condition is excellent with damage, repair or restoration to the basket or handles. There are some usual minor losses to the applied leaves and petals at the handle terminals. There are three flowers absent from the top row on the outside walls but they are clearly an omission during manufacture and there is also an erroneous small dab of clay to one of the leaves of the main pattern. Minimal handling wear, no discernible wear to the glaze or surface scratches, etc. and the printing is nice and clear. Payment is accepted by bank transfer, card payments (via an online invoice, I'm afraid we cannot take payments over the telephone), Paypal and UK personal cheque. If you prefer to pay by Stripe please go to our website where we offer that option and additionally options to "Pay in 30 days" and to pay in 3 instalments, all securely supported.
