Stunning Chelsea Gold Anchor vase with two elaborately scrolled
handles highlighted in gold, enamelled on both sides with large
exotic birds. Marked with an anchor in gold.

NOTE:
This is a genuine piece of Chelsea: the mark was often copied in
the last 2 centuries, and always well marked. This piece displays
the other essential characteristics, such as soft paste porcelain,
small flaws in the paste, honey gilding with a tendency to flake,
and slightly fugative colours, in this case the blue of the birds
feathers. While you will see many copies being sold as genuine,
this piece is guaranteed, with 45 years dealing
experience to back it up!
