About the Item

This vibrant pair of antique English porcelain cups and saucers was hand-painted by Barr Flight Barr at the Worcester Porcelain factory between 1807 and 1813. In my shop, we refer to this as “Mario’s pattern,” named in honor of the late interior designer Mario Buatta, who began his firm in 1963 and was a devoted client for decades. Whenever pieces in this pattern appeared, we saved them for Mario. The cups and saucers are painted in an opulent Imari palette of gem-like enamels in iron red, deep cobalt blue, and gold, enriched by the unexpected additions of pink, turquoise, purple, green, and pale blue. The design is bold, joyful, and full of layered detail—an outstanding example of English Imari style porcelain from the Barr Flight Barr period. The decoration is exuberant and richly detailed, featuring large stylized flowers, garden fences, rockwork, and a bird in flight. The plates have a unique beauty. Dimensions: Saucers 5.5" in diameter, cups 2.5" tall x 3.25" in diameter Condition: Excellent Marks: with impressed “BFB” Worcester mark Price: $480
