About the Item

First Period worcester porcelain large leaf dish, London decorated probably painted by James Giles Circa 1770. This molded First Period Worcester porcelain overlapping leaf dish was possibly decorated by the famous London painter, James Giles. The rim of the dish is gilded with a thin line and the centers of the large molded leaves are painted in puce. The design of fruit and butterflies is characteristic of Giles's workshop painting as discussed by Stephen Hanscombe in James Giles, China and Glass Painter 1718-80 (see the reference section below). Dimensions: 14 inches x 9 3/4 inches Reference: Worcester Porcelain 1751-1790, The Zorensky Collection, Simon Spero & John Sandon, page 187, #215 for a smaller version of the shape. It is possible that this dish was painted in the Giles workshop. James Giles, China and Glass Painter 1718-80, Stephen Hanscombe. See chapter 5 for photographic examples of characteristic painting mannerisms such as the upturned mushroom with the pleated underside and butterflies with unnaturally long thin wings and curiously folded legs overlapping antennae. See plate 40 for leaf dish with similar fruit and butterflies.
