Irish Belleek Tridacna Porcelain China
Item Details
Exquisitely beautiful Irish Belleek Tridacna patterned fine bone china tea and coffee service ensemble, each of the fine pieces designed with vertical basket weave patterning to the body, and to the lid and the base of the spout where the pattern converts to a radial design resembling a seashell, with foliate embellishments resembling entwining coral, in pale yellow. The lid has a flared conical form with interesting branch finial in a pale yellow glaze. The teapot handle, which spans the lid, also is in the form of a twig, with encrusted moss form embellishments.
