Richard Sebright worked at Worcester from 1882 through to 1946.
According to one reference source (Antique Marks) he "is viewed as the best fruit painter ever".

Very good condition ... no chips or cracks. There is some crazing to the outer rim yellow ground and to the under side, again confined to the outer edge. There is also some very slight traces of wear to the gilt work.
