Maker: Wardle  Pattern: Arcadian Chariots

Made by Wardle & Co of Washington Pottery, Hanley, Staffordshire. Has the appearance of a piece from around 1820, although dating to around 1900.
Invalid feeding cups are now of another age, but are popular with collectors today; so an unusual piece and such a pretty shape. It does have some crazing to the glaze, which in some areas has taken up a little light staining. There are two small areas of visible restoration to the rim, one small restoration underneath the rim of the cover and a small firing crack in the spout which can just be seen.

Dimensions: 11.5 cm diameter 15 cm to spout 6.5 cm high / 4.5 ins diameter 6 ins to spout 2.5 ins high
