Clarice Cliff Ravel Pattern Conical Trio and Teapot
The conical teacup has the "pierced" type handle and measures 9 cm in diameter. There is a small chip in the green paint band, adjacent to the handle, but is otherwise in good order.
The saucer is 14.7 cm diameter and the plate is 16.6 cm diameter, both have a few small chips in the paint, but nothing very serious considering that they were probably used (and washed up) daily and are over 80 years old.
The teapot is 11.7 cm diameter and I'm afraid it has suffered a bit more. The lid is missing, there are some small chips around the spout and two hairline cracks, one in the spout and one across the base. There is also some rather odd looking grey staining around the base. However, with their dramatic shapes, these items make a very good display.
I have tried to describe the damage as accurately as I can but please look carefully at the pictures before you bid.
