Description

A Worcester coffee cup c.1770-75, decorated in the Giles atelier with delicate sprays of flowering chrysanthemum, pencilled in black then filled in green with gilt highlights, the cup's interior rim with a continuous flowering band, 6.4cm.

This design is a known Giles staple and is believed to have been developed from the simpler and more naively painted pattern of the preceding lot.
