Royal Doulton, famous ships bowl, The Active.







This is from the Royal Doulton Famous Ships series. Approximately the middle of the last century. The bowl is 19.5cm in diameter across the rim, it is 10cm in height. The bowl is in very good sound condition, no chips or cracks, glaze is bright and shiny, clean rim. I am not sure if the bowl has been used, there may be some slight wear and crazing on the inside, the interior is slightly less pristine than the exterior. Given my lack of experience with these items I cannot really be sure if the interior surface condition is from atmospheric moisture and cleaning, or wear. But overall the bowl is in very good condition.

This item has been sold.
