Condition:

This elegant Chamberlain Worcester oval teapot stand is in good condition with no chips, repairs or restoration. The only minor imperfection is that there is some wear to the gilt decoration, this can be seen in the pictures and is mainly to the gilding on the roses at each end of the stand and a little to the central gilded oval. There is also a very tiny firing crack to the foot rim, which is insignificant. This is a very fine chamberlain Worcester teapot stand from c1802-1805.
