Pair of Antique Samson Hancock Derby Imari King’s Pattern Shallow Bowls – 21.5 cm – Circa 1860s
A beautiful pair of antique Samson Hancock Derby shallow bowls, decorated in the highly sought-after King’s Pattern Imari design, dating to the circa 1860s. These elegant pieces are excellent examples of 19th-century English Derby porcelain, renowned for its vibrant colours and intricate decoration.
Each bowl is richly decorated in the traditional Imari palette of deep cobalt blue, iron red, and gilt highlights, with elaborate pattern work characteristic of Samson Hancock Derby’s celebrated King’s Pattern. The detailed design combines scrolling foliage, stylised motifs, and fine gilded accents, creating a striking and highly decorative effect typical of Victorian Derby porcelain.
Measuring a generous 21.5 cm in diameter, these shallow bowls are both practical and highly decorative, ideal for use as serving dishes, fruit bowls, or cabinet display pieces. Their bold colour palette and
... ornate decoration make them a wonderful addition to any Derby porcelain collection or traditional table setting.
Both bowls are marked to the base with the Samson Hancock Derby factory marks, confirming their origin and authenticity.
Condition
Presented in very good antique condition for their age, with vibrant decoration and attractive overall appearance. Minor signs of age and light wear to the gilding may be present, consistent with pieces from this period. Please refer to photographs for confirmation.
