Rare Antique 1884 Aesthetic Movement Historical View Transferware Chamber Pot

Description: Seller: Alley-Antiques DESCRIPTION: The price is for one antique transferware covered Chamber Pot. The pattern is called The World. This was made by Wallis Gimson & Co., Fenton Staffordshire England. Heavy Ironstone type pottery. Each piece is marked and has the English Registry number 7624 which dates this to the year 1884. This is a popular pattern for a few reasons. First, it has the beautiful Aesthetic Movement style. Then, the pieces have several different city views from around the World as seen in the 1880s (including some with American views). The base has views of Shiba, Japan as seen in the 1880s and also Kamakura, Japan (only Kamakura shows on transfer) . The lid has a view of the Taj Mahal Acra, India and aman riding an Elephant view. Rare form for this pattern and has rare Japan and India scenes as viewed from the 1880s. Condition is good for age, but not perfect. Lid has no damage. No chips, cracks, or repairs. Typical clear crazing. This base has an old hairline crack. No other chips, cracks, or repairs. Typical clear crazing. It is nice the chamber pot still has its lid which tends to get lost or broken over time. Both lid and base are nice and clean.Upon close inspection you may notice the typical transfer skips, stilt marks, bubbles in glaze, losses from sand grit, or other in- the-making manufacturing flaws typical from production from this period. Beautiful RARE very collectible example that hard to find World scenes. Rare form for this pattern. Measures about 9 1/2" in diameter at the lid and just over 8" tall overall.
