| Pair Derby bough pots with under-dishes. Fine soft-paste porcelain with handpainted enamel scenes of Italy and elaborate gilding. Circa 1815. Each pot 7 3/4" high, 6 3/4" wide. "D" and crown mark in red on all four pieces. Scenes noted "In Italy" in red on undercarriage. These were probably made as souvenirs of a "Grand Tour" possibly from paintings acquired abroad. Condition: The under-dishes once had handles which have been removed and polished flat, they also have considerable gilt-wear. The pots themselves have each had a hairline in the back-side restored. The lines did not go into the decoration and the gilding on the pots is in remarkably good condition. | |||||||||
