An early Worcester blue and white pickle dish c.1751-52
An early Worcester blue and white pickle dish c.1751-52, of simple ivy leaf shape, painted with a Long Eliza figure pointing to her left, between tall flowering branches, a few small rim chips, 10.2cm.
Provenance: the John Pinnick Collection.
This design is seen on Lund's Bristol and some very early Worcester porcelain, deriving from a design used at Limehouse. The Lund's examples tend to be slightly narrower than the Worcester.
