Maker: Jones George  Pattern: Abbey

A candlestick in George Jone's Abbey is rarely found these days. An original pair, that started out life together, in good condition is much rarer!
These sticks have good clear prints in dark blue, with only the occasional smudge or hazy bit. They have a lovely clear glaze, almost pearly. The inner rims of the sconces are decorated with the border design. Inside one of the sconces is a minor stress crack, which occurred during firing. There are a few lines of craze to the glaze. Otherwise these sticks are like new.
Both have the earlier blue printed backstamp Abbey 1790 within a cartouche.
