Condition: Fine antique condition
Manufacturer: John Alcock
We offer here a three-piece tureen in a shape that dates back to the early origins of Staffordshire white ironstone. It is octagonal with matching panels on each of its eight faces. One can follow the panels from the lid to the bowl, ending with the underplate.
It shows some crazing. The fabulous handles are elegantly embossed as are the handles of the underplate. The Mayer potter is known for this handle decoration. This vessel, however, is unmarked. The underplate is marked with the backstamp of the John Alcock firm. It dates to the 1840 - 1850 period. The underplate measures a bit over 8 inches wide and is in fine condition. The foot ring has a very minor flake which only shows it the plate is upended.
The bowl is 8 inches from handle to handle. It is in fine condition, free of chips and cracks.
The lid has a chip underneath the finial as pictured. It is easy to miss.
Given the little flaws, this piece, normally very expensive, is listed at a moderate price. |
