Royal Worcester Drawstring Purse Vase

About the Item

This Royal Worcester vase is a bit unusual in that it is in the shape of a Japanese drawstring purse-it is possibly shape 381 which was issued in 1874 and described as "Money bag (old)". The body is decorated with raised Japanese motifs that are highlighted by gilding and set off by the pink drawstring. Japanese inspired themes were popular motifs for the Aesthetic Movement. This vase features the Worcester mark incorporating the name of the retailer, Thomas Goode and Son, of London, well known as purveyors of items of the highest standard. It stands 152 mm (6 inches) high and is 127 mm (5 inches) in diameter. It has a few tiny scratches to the green ground and there is some slight loss of the gilding to the rim-otherwise there are no other faults. C 1875.
