A SUPERB Chelsea silver shaped dish, C.1755. |
| A have never seen these AMAZING hand painted birds painted on these lovely shaped dishes. Also, this dish is in PERFECT CONDITION, with no chips, cracks or restorations. Another first, as those points are just asking to be chipped. The enamels are lovely and bright. Fully maked to the back with the anchor mark and typical stilts marks for Chelsea. A SUPERB EXAMPLE, that I feel sure would be above £1,000 in a good porcelain dealers shop. |
