This great footed majolica bowl is part of the extensive Pond Lily
series produced by the firm of J Holdcroft. The bowl is molded
from overlapping lily pads with two blossoms glazed a pale
cornflower blue. The base is also overlapping leaves.
<p>Compote measures 10-1/4 inch across top, 3-1/4 inch tall.
<p>Good-Very Good condition. There is a very small chip (as
shown), a tight hairline crack (as shown) and a very small
manufacturer flaw where a small spot of glaze is missing. None
of these really detract from
the piece.
<p>Impressed J Holdcroft on bottom. Made in England circa
1865.
<p>Please see our inventory for more majolica, unique items
and fine antiques.
