Description
A Spiral Fluted Worcester Tea Service c1795
A Beautiful service comprised of:
Tea Pot with stand. creamer. sucrier. slop bowl. bread and butter or cake plate. four coffee cans. three tea cups. two tea bowls. four saucers.
Decorated with a gilded cobalt blue band and gilded thistles. All pieces marked with Worcester crescent or incised B. Unfortunately one tea cup one saucer and coffee can was damaged in transit. thus we have replaced this with the identical pattern Etruscan shaped tea cup. coffee can and saucer Flight and Barr Worcester (FBB impressed). We admit that with the advent of tea bags slop bowls are no longer used to hold the dregs. leaves and all from the tea pot and or cups. They do however make good muffin dishes.
We will not break up the set despite the obvious commercial advantages of doing so. No chips. cracks or restoration. There is some wear to the gilding in the base of the bowls of both tea bowls and one cup. commensurate with use.
