Description

I came across this dish and am looking to see if anyone knows the history. There are no markings on the bottom besides a worn letter that I cant make out. I have searched google with no result. I also have a friend who is an auctioneer who told me that based on the picture looks to be late 1800s but does not know the origin. I'm hoping you guys have some clues!

Re: Antique covered casserole dish

There's not enough crazing for me to suggest it as being 1800s, but it does somewhat look like an older piece. Items that are not marked are difficult to appraise or give details about, most of the time that is. Usually unmarked items are worth very little unless they can be proven to be of a brand that just did not mark their items at that time period. It appears Asian in origin, probably Chinese. So much came out of China unmarked then and now, that it's hard to find details on anything unmarked and Chinese. If only it were marked. If you can, take some clear close ups of it, and of the bottom. I might be able to give more insight if I can see the condition and bottom better.

I added two more pictures of the bottom. I've done some more research on the piece but still no luck. I did find a extremely similar item by ashworth. Its ashworth "chinese pattern" the difference between the two are the leaves in the art. Mine are colored in a orangish color where as that one has no color. Also, I found several other manufacturers that have the same patterns on their pieces- H&C and JF Wileman. I'm starting to think mine is just a knock off! Either way, I'm very curious. Thank you for your reply!

It looks like a reproduction to me , it's too glossy to be an original. Many of these were made during the 1980's when values for Victorian examples were amping up.
