A beautiful Worcester circular dish / shallow bowl with their stunning mirror finish "wet" blue, or gros bleu, ground, reserving a large central circle boldly painted with a pair of "fancy" birds in a simple landscape with berried tree and a scattering of birds up in the sky. Striking raised gilt decoration framing the reserve and radiating into the blue ground with scrolls, arabesques and graduated dashes. Gilt rim and blue crescent mark to the base, c.1770.

It measures 19cm (7 1/2") wide and 4.1cm (1 5/8") high.

In excellent condition with no damage, repair or restoration. There is a firing fault line in the glaze which can be seen on the reverse, appearing only under close inspection as a short fine scratch to the front below the grass and a fine craze line to the side. Minimal handling wear to enamels or gilding, a stunning example. 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.
