declaration
The Fancy Fox has clarified that the First Period Worcester Rubber Tree Plant Sauce Tureen & Stand (LA149551) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being c.1775
condition
Condition is very good with a few minor points to note: the stand has had a short hairline at the rim stabilised and an associated professional small infill to a small chip at the rim edge, and a filled chip to the foot rim. The tureen base has no issues bar a couple of really tiny frits to the tips of the handles. The lid has had a hairline stabilised running just part way either side of the knop (not reaching either edge). No other damage or restoration and surface wear is very light.
