CIRCA 1860-80, THE WORCESTER EXAMPLE WITH PRINTED AND IMPRESSED FACTORY MARKS, THE COPELAND EXAMPLE WITH PRINTED 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 in good decorative order; the Worcester vase with very light scratches to the gilding of the footrim consistent with age and use, the Copeland box with two old repairs to inside rim of cover not visible when closed, and some wear to gilding and enamel on footrim; the Paris example with bright gilding with some ware, notably around rims, small firing crack to one of the shell shaped vessels, one vessel with small repaired and over painted area to rim, two larger over painted areas to each side of the dish, slight ware to enamel on coral handle, the unmarked English example, with slight wear to the gilding notably on rims of base, one very small loss to the enamel to the top of one of the tripod supports.
