Description
A scalloped saucer, scroll handle and lively floral colour distinguish this Flosmaron cup and saucer from more restrained tea sets. Cobalt, iron red, yellow and green sit beside gilt lattice panels, creating an Imari-inspired decoration with plenty to notice at close range. The pair fits comfortably among vintage English ceramics and tea and coffee table pieces.
Both pieces are described as carrying the red printed words English Flosmaron Make. The marks identify the Flosmaron name and claim English manufacture, but do not identify an independently confirmed factory or named pattern. It is therefore more accurate to retain Flosmaron as the marked name than to invent a pottery behind it. The matching decoration, shaped edges and gilt accents establish the pair as a coordinated set. The supplied condition grade is Good, with no chips or cracks reported. Gilt embellishment and small decorative details should be read as visible features, not as proof that every surface is free of age-related wear. Photographs cannot reliably exclude a fine hairline or past restoration. For more context on the decoration and identification, see the Journal guide to Imari-inspired ceramics.
