CIRCA 1778, IMPRESSED CIRCULAR WEDGWOOD & BENTLEY MARK

The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

Overall of good decorative appearance.

There are what appear to be a series of a short firing cracks or possibly hairline cracks through one of the cluster of rushes below the handle which has been retouched and there is a small area of the rushes which are lacking, this may have occurred at firing. There is some similar overpainting to the tips of the fronds at shoulder height and some other minor areas if retouching at edge. This is very minor. Small chip to edge of rushes below and to the side of the dolphin mask. Minute chip to edge of handle and small chip to underside of the footrim. Minor wear to the surface, one corner of the base has been polished to bevelled edge, which probably occurred during manufacture.
