George Jones Majolica Large 'Rose Basket' in Cobalt Blue, circa 1872
About the Item
George Jones Majolica large 'Rose Basket' 9.5-in wide in cobalt blue, circa 1872. Impressed British Registry mark stamp to reverse for 17 February 1872. George Jones pattern number '3263' painted in black to reserve on bottom, which corresponds to "large 'Rose Basket', dk. bl. gr., 3 sizes 7in to 9in" in the George Jones Majolica pattern numbers book from the Wedgwood Archives. Cobalt blue is generally the most prized of all the Majolica glazes because of its decorative force. This is a highly rare piece to begin with; the large size makes it rarer; the cobalt blue coloration and the excellent condition make it even rarer still.
For over 28 years we have been among the Nation's preeminent specialists in fine antique Majolica.
