Antique Porcelain Shell form Sweetmeats Dish - $45 - (Richland, MS)
I have virtually no experience with 18th English ceramics, but my hunch is that this scallop shell sweetmeats dish is a 19th Century version of an 18th Century Worcester/Bow example. Not sure if the squiggly crossed lines mark (shown last photo) is English or Continental, a factory or a decorator's mark, but if not English perhaps German. The dish is 3 1/4"h x 4 3/4" max width x 4"d. In good condition with two or three speck nicks to the seashell & moss surrounding base, please see condition statement and zoomed photos to inspect closely. From the personal collection of an old-time fine antiques dealer in my area who passed away a decade ago. Insured US shipping via USPS Priority Mail, international shipping via Global Shipping Center only. Thank you for looking!
