This is a beautiful small bowl made by Flight, Barr & Barr between 1816 and 1820. The bowl is decorated with the characteristic gilt seaweed pattern. It is a mystery what this bowl was for; it is an unusual size. If bigger, you could say it's a soup bowl - perhaps a small dessert bowl? Dessert services usually didn't have these bowls but it could have been a custom order. Flight, Barr & Barr was the continuation of the famous Worcester Porcelain Company. In fact the factory went through various partnerships and names, most of which involved either the name Barr, Flight, or both (or double!). This confusing period in the factory's existence is often called the "Flight & Barr" period. Eventually the factory absorbed some of its spin-offs and was turned into the Royal Worcester, which became very famous in the late 19th and 20th Centuries. During the late 18th and entire 19th Century they were among the leaders of china production, producing exceptionally finely painted and sculpted forms. This bowl is nicely shaped in a shallow shape with a flat and externally gadrooned rim, as was introduced in 1816. The bowl has a gracious pattern of gilt seaweed, which is characteristic for Flight and Barr porcelain...
