Dessert dish. Unidentified Staffordshire Pottery. Moulded with fruit, nuts, rococo scrolls and diaper, and decorated with coloured glazes. The circular dish has a pierced basket-work border, curved sides, and flat central area. The front is decorated with a central medallion with a yellow rope edging and wickerwork ground enclosing three paired scrolls within a roughly triangular frame of scrolls all in green. On the sides there are three scroll-edged compartments, each enclosing four different fruits and nuts on twigs with leaves suspended from the basket-work border. The space beween the fruits and the central medallion is filled with panels of trellis diaper alternating with panels of striations. Dark cream earthenware, press-moulded with integral relief decoration, pierced, and decorated with green, yellow and manganese-brown coloured glazes. The green glaze does not cover the whole of the area inside the footring, but shows the dark cream body. Height, whole, 3.2 cm, diameter, whole, 28 cm, circa 1755-1765. Rococo. Sir Ivor and Lady Batchelor Bequest through The Art Fund.
