Three Empires
SOLD

A beautifully potted bowl with reticulated borders painted in green, blue, yellow, black and pink enamels and thick gilding. Whilst I have seen baskets like this before, I have never seen this colour of decoration. I do not know the factory and the description "Worcester" is my catch-all. It has a very wide footrim . It appears to be a soft, perhaps soapstone type paste .I believe this is quite an early piece. It measures 6 3/4inches (17.2 cms) across. It has been cleanly broken in two and has had a masterpiece stapling job done on it. There is no loss to the paste and no overpainting
