This is a circa 1830''s English rococo style dessert service comprising of two twin handled dishes and three single handled dishes. The decoration is by green transfer print, overpainted by hand.
They are decorated with foliate designs, picked out with gilding. The dishes have undulating edges, and the handles are of scrolling form with pierced detail.
They have a green painter''s mark to the underside.
The condition is generally quite poor and each piece has faults. The photographs should provide a good illustration of condition. One dish has been broken and had an old stapled repair. There is discolouration to the glazes, having turned brown in some areas. There is a piece missing from one of the handles. There are various hairline cracks and some crazing. There is a chip to a foot rim. There is wear to the gilding and the enamel.
The twin handled dishes are 5.5cm high, 26.2cm wide and 21cm deep.
The single handled dishes are 5cm high, 23cm wide and 20.7cm deep.
