18TH/19TH CENTURY, BLACK PAINTED FLEUR-DES-LYS MARK TO THE STEM OF THE SMALLER, POSSIBLY FOR SCEAUX

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.

Each in overall good condition; with a few scattered burst glaze bubbles; with some scattered tiny chips, enamel flaking and fritting to the high points, rims and undersides of the feet; both covers with restoration, particularly to the high points of veins and to the rims; both tureens with scattered touch-ups to the painted decoration; the larger cover appears to have extensive restoration, the very pale blue paint of the interior 'wrinkled'; one tureen with a foot broken off and restuck.

10 in. long, the smaller example
