A rare English delftware fluted bowl, circa 1720

Probably Bristol, lightly moulded with sixteen vertical flutes and painted in red, blue and green with a series of Chinese emblems and 'Precious Objects', three pairs of winged Cupids in blue placed around the border, a series of concentric lines in blue above the footrim, the interior with further Chinese Precious Objects just in blue, 26cm diam, 14cm high

Footnotes

A small number of delftware punchbowls include cherubs within border decoration, although no other example combines these typically-European motifs with Chinese religious symbols. The colouring and bold style of painting used on this bowl is also remarkable.
