About the Item
This large English creamware basket was made circa 1790 and stands out for both its generous size and exceptional quality.
Thirty-six handmade openwork bands rise from the solid base, interlacing at the rim in an elegant rhythm of light and form.
Each band was individually applied by hand, creating subtle irregularities that speak to the artistry of its Georgian-era origin.
The glaze is pale, soft, and luminous, and the walls rise higher and more steeply than is typical, lending the piece a sense of sculptural presence.
The proportions are generous, and the workmanship—particularly the precision of the pierced structure—is unusually fine.
Baskets of this intricacy were among the most time-consuming forms to produce in creamware.
Surviving examples are increasingly rare and prized for their quiet elegance and technical delicacy.
Dimensions: 3" tall x 9" diameter across the top; 4.75" diameter across the base
Condition: Excellent
Price: $730
Background of Creamware:
Creamware is cream-colored, refined earthenware.
It was created in the mid-1700s by the potters of Staffordshire, England.
Foremost of the pioneers of creamware was Thomas Whieldon.
He invented a wide variety of decorations for creamware.
The young Josiah Wedgwood partnered with Thomas Whieldon from 1754 to 1759.
When Wedgwood left to set up his own business, he immediately directed his efforts to develop creamware.
