SOLD

This sugar bowl and cover makes a classic Bristol hardpaste item dating from about 1768 when Cookworthy transferred his Plymouth working to Champion at Bristol. The paste retains the white opaque effect and the bowl shows slight evidence of a thrown item. It has retained very good shape but shows the typical Bristol weaknesses of a hairline round the knop which is itself undamaged and a potting flaw in the centre of the base. The floral knop and leaves are in perfect order. The decoration and gilding are also in excellent condition and the base, which does not reflect the internal flaw has the blue crossed swords mark and a gilt figure 1 or 7 which might reflect Henry Bone’s involvement. 5581c
