Description: Very rare antique late 1910's to early 1920's Moorecroft ridged footed purple/blue luster glaze 9” bowl, excellent condition without chips, cracks, or crazing. Some manufacturing irregularities, such as color variance to pinker hue near one edge, glaze blips/bubbles, darker areas here and there, as well as manufacturing crack near inside edge. Hand signed on bottom by William Moorecroft, and stamped with, Made in England, a capitalized M, and Moorecroft, as well as a production number I can't make out. The bowl is absolutely gorgeous nonetheless with it's nearly color changing luster/iridescent glaze over top of finely spaced ridge pattern. I am not certain it is safe to serve food from the bowl with it's glaze being quite old, but it would make a beautiful display piece. Measures 8 1/4” across top (9” at widest) X 3 3/8” tall. Weight before packaging is 1.40 kg. Smoke and pet free home.

Vintage items may have some light wear and manufacturing imperfections. If there are any noticeable problems or issues, such as chips, cracks or other will be clearly described in words, as well as pictures. Please refer to the photos for details, using the zoom feature for close up, as with all vintage items they provide a more detailed description of the item in question. It is normal to find minor manufacturing flaws in older pieces including glassware and stoneware pieces, such as line striations, variations in colors, pieces of ash, white marks, bubbles, etc. These do not affect quality and function. Colors may show up differently on your screens and devices. Please feel free to message me with any questions. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************** CARE/CLEANING Each item I have in my shop is meticulously cleaned using the most natural methods. I use unscented laundry detergents, and cleaners. It is recommended to wash your vintage item by hand, as it will add more years to it's life. The prints on glassware are especially vulnerable to harsh chemicals used in dishwasher detergent. Capucine Vintage Home is a smoke, scent, and pet free business. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************** SECURE DELIVERY LOCATION Please be sure that your receiving location is secure.
