18th century
Description

This is a scarce Georgian, wrythen-moulded egg cup with a turned-inward bowl rim dating from the end of the 18th century, c1780.

The egg cup is in excellent condition for its age. It shows age related wear and tear to the rim of the base consistent with some 240 years of use. It has a rough pontil mark on the underside of the foot.

The egg cup is in the Bristol blue colourway and campana-shaped and measures 5.4 cm (2.1 inches) in diameter at the upper rim. The bowl has a turned inward rim, is moulded in a wrythen pattern and ends in a short, extruded stem and a circular foot that measures 5.1 cm (2 inches) in diameter. The egg cup is 7.5 cm (3 inches) in height. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any evidence of restoration. There is a small rough patch of extraneous glass on the outside of the bowl, dating from manufacture.

It weighs 90 g. (~ 3 oz.).
