Description

We have for sale a very attractive and rather hard to find 1st period Worcester Rich Queens pattern saucer dish c1770-1775.

This lovely round saucer dish is decorated in the Rich Queens pattern consisting of an Imari insipred pattern with vertical gilded panels alternately painted with chrysanthemums against a white ground and foliate gilded cobalt blue panels each containing a reserve decorated with chrysanthemums with leaves against a white ground all around a central panel again painted with leafy chrysanthemums against a white ground. The base of the dish carries the 1st period Worcester pseudo square blue fret mark.

The dish is 7.5 inches (19cm) in diameter, 1.5 inches (3.8cm) high and is in an excellent condition with no chips, cracks or repairs and minimal wear to the decoration. This saucer dish has obviously spent the majority of its 250 existence in a display case.
