Ford Fluted Gilded Floral Trio
Description: Without so much as a surface scratch, this Charles Ford trio was made at their Cannon St. works in Hanley, Staffordshire and carries his 1874 impressed backmark.
Condition: Excellent - free from chips, cracks and crazing. The pattern is in superb condition and the trim gilding is as new, with no wear evident. A super trio in top condition.
Size: Square fluted Cup: 5.7cms tall and 8cms across. Saucer: 14cms across. Side plate: 18.5cms in diameter.
Decor: Hand painted over transfer ware, with bold coloured, long stemmed flowers, accompanied by broad leafage. Gilded stems are spread throughout. All this is on a ripple edged, twist fluted background.
Thick gilding around the trim of each piece completes the decor. The square rimmed cup, with its twisted sides and gilded pattern right into the base of the cup is a definite highlight.
A superb trio, around 135 years old and in excellent condition.

Many Victorian items are without a back mark. I am not an antiques dealer, but try to be as accurate as possible in all of my listings. I research makers and time of manufacture in purpose bought reference books as much as time allows. However if you are unsure or don't understand what you're looking at, then it's best if you don't bid.
NB: I try very hard to be as accurate as possible, but I do not use callipers. All measurements stated should be taken as approximates.
Don't forget to notify me of your purchase via the checkout function. My banking details can be found there also.
Paypal is the only method of payment for international buyers.
Please take the time to give feedback, but if there are any problems be sure to discuss it before leaving negative feedback. This is after all supposed to be a pleasant experience.
