Set of Four Antique English Porcelain Bowls in Imari Style by Coalport Ca. 1825

$380.00

This set of four antique porcelain bowls was made by Coalport in England, circa 1825.
Each bowl is hand-painted in a vibrant interpretation of the Imari style, with rich orange floral motifs surrounded by swirling gilt leaves on a white ground.
The orange flowers are stylized lilies, specifically reminiscent of tiger lilies or daylilies.
However, the design emphasizes decorative flourish over botanical accuracy.
The wide cobalt blue border is embellished with hand-applied gilt decoration in a foliate pattern, featuring tulip-like blossoms and curving tendrils.
This elegant gilded design adds elegance and visual rhythm, enhancing the contrast between the deep blue border and the bright central motif.
The pattern reflects the early 19th-century English taste for luxurious, exotic styles drawn from Japanese Imari wares.
This striking color palette of the center is also inspired by Japanese Imari ware, and was a hallmark of early 19th-century English porcelain.
The set comprises two slightly larger bowls measuring 8.75 inches in diameter by 1.75 inches tall, and two slightly smaller bowls measuring 8 inches in diameter by 1.5 inches tall.
They were originally made as complementary pieces for serving or display.

Dimensions: A pair of bowls measuring 8.75″ in diameter x 1.75″ tall, and another pair measuring 8″ in diameter x 1.5″ tall.

Condition: The porcelain is in excellent condition, there is slight rubbing to the gilt
