Slight wear to gilding on rim only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lovely vase is finely potted in porcelain with a reticulated rim and two handles, and decorated with applied gilt, silver and dark grey underglaze colour  in a semi relief method.  The decoration is in the Japanese style which was all the rage in England at the time the vase was made - a period often known as the Aesthetic Period. The front of the vase shows a stork flying near bamboo, and the reverse shows a butterfly and prunus blossom.  There is the usual printed Royal Worcester mark on the base which is not very clear so the date code can not be read. However there is an impressed date code for 1881 (which will date the vase body) and also the incised number 795 and a painted number 7 in gilt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe decoration may be by James or Thomas Callowhill, but there is no evidence for this although it is in their style.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chester's Farm Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53372485763409,"sku":null,"price":260.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1032\/4312\/0977\/files\/RoyalWorcester_1.jpg?v=1783423076","url":"https:\/\/chestersfarmgallery.com\/products\/royal-worcester-aesthetic-period-porcelain-and-gilt-vase-1881-in-japanese-style","provider":"Chester's Farm Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
