A large & rare Spode Porcelain Square Tray from a Cabaret Set decorated in pattern 1166 c.1820. One of the most sumptuous designs produced by Spode. Pattern 1166 was first recorded in about 1808. The pattern is ground laid in cobalt blue, hand painted and gilded on Spode''s pure white bone china. It is gilded and painted entirely by hand. The combination of cobalt blue and gold is one of the most expensive in ceramic decoration as it is produced with 2 of the most expensive raw materials. This extravagance, coupled with these gorgeous flowers, makes this design one of the most magnificent to come out of the Spode factory.
Marked Spode 1166 in red to the reverse
Condition: Excellent with no damage. Just a small amount of retouching to some worn gilding.
