A pretty Worcester porcelain large fluted sugar bowl and cover, c.1780-1785. Possibly decorated in the atelier of James Giles with fine gilded decoration of intricate swags and garlands pendent from bows. This frieze runs around the cover edge and more unusually to the inside of the bowl. The outside of the bowl and inner area of the cover are decorated with a simple scattering of gilded stars and both pieces are finished with gilded rims and a gilt knop to the cover. Unmarked, c.1780.
