FLOW BLUE TUREEN WITH DEEP UNDER TRAY STAND (1244)

Rare flow blue soup tureen with matching deep undertray.

H&K PALMERSTONE.  

Made in England, 19th century.

Measurements: tray is 14 inches long X a little over 10 1/4 wide.

Tureen is 14 inches from handle to handle, 9inches accross and 8inches high.

Beautiful pattern of roses and blossoms in deep dark blue.

Frilly shaped base of tureen is echoed by the well of the undertray and the larger frill of the upper rim and lid are echoed by the curves of the tray rim.

Moulded handles and finial.

Slightly folded form of tureen.

Both tureen and undertray are marked in blue underglaze H&K within a round tube and PALMERSTONE inside the circle formed by the tube.

Also underglaze letter F on both shows that they are a matching set.

The condition of both pieces is great.

The tureen is in excellent condition with absolutely negligible marks hidden on the upper inside corner.

The undertray has no damage but is quite badly crazed in the center.

The craze marks would likely fade in a bleach bath.
