Large Maling Blue Lustre 'Gladioli' Bowl c1936 (Sold)

A large footed bowl from Maling in one of the rarer 1930's lustre designs - 'Gladioli' gold print on a dark blue background. A stunning piece with vibrant hand painted flower sprays in pink, yellow, blue and mauve on both the inside and outside of the bowl. The detail is then overprinted in gold to enhance the lustre effect. In great condition; no chips, cracks or restoration. Some age related rubbing of the gilt round the rim, but it's such a beautiful piece I feel this is acceptable and doesn't really detract. I've also tried to price it accordingly. Printed Maling mark and painted pattern number 6322. Diameter 21.75cm (8.6in)
