DUTCH SILVER MOUNTED WORCESTER SOFT PASTE BASKET DR. WALL PERIOD 18th CENTURY
Price: NL $132.50

A wonderful silver mounted Worcestersoft paste porcelain basket, Dr. Wall period, c. 1770

Description:

On offer is this elegant 18th century Worcester soft paste porcelain basketwith reticulated sides and two embossed silver handles. This wonderful objectis decorated in blue and creamy white under glaze with a pine & conepattern on the base. The basket is marked underneath the base with the crescentmoon mark, appropriate for the period (known as the Dr. Wall Period). Thebasket has two silver handles, neatly mounted to the basket with plaster and thin silverwire. These silver mounts bear Dutch silver hallmarks i.e. a dolphin mark, usedduring the 19th century for inland Dutch silverware. This means that the silverhandles are Dutch made, and obviously added to the basket at a later stage.

The item is in outstanding condition. There are no chips, cracks or repairs.The relief work and even the vulnerable petal tips are in perfect condition. However,the silver handles might be a replacement for the original pottery handles: anelegant solution. The object stands 3 3/8inches (85mm) high, and measures10 inches(25,4 cmacross. I have made several pictures from all sides, which honestly reflect thewonderful quality and outstanding condition of this rare piece of early Englishpottery with Dutch silver mounts. I guarantee age (2nd half 18th century) andauthenticity (Worcester) of this superb collector\'s item.
