This exquisite pair of early 19th-century hand-painted Bloor Derby lidded potpourri pots are a testament to English craftsmanship. Dating back to around 1815, these pots, although unmarked, are believed to be of Derby origin.Each pot is generously proportioned and adorned with a lavish hand-decorated design in traditional Imari colors, featuring a continuous decoration encircling the body and intricate gilding throughout. The rims are adorned with four projecting lion''s heads, leading to four paw feet on a gracefully shaped inverted base. The circular lids echo the same ornate decoration as the pots themselves.In superb condition, these pots exhibit no signs of damage or restoration, with only minor wear to the gilding at the highest points, indicative of their age and history. Notably, they bear a blue underglaze ''N'' mark, adding to their provenance.These highly decorative pieces are a rare find, particularly in such impeccable condition, and would make a stunning addition to any collection or interior setting.All our items can be purchased directly from the product page via PAYPAL (scroll down for Blue PayPal Button) payment, or by contacting us directly if you would prefer to pay via a bank transfer.UK POSTAGE: Our items are professionally and securely packaged; please add £10 for small items, objets d'art (items that can fit into a 20cm x 20cm box), or £20 for anything larger (large vase, boxes, candlesticks, etc.).
