For your consideration is this Parian Ware Bailey & Cooke Hanley double bon-bon dish made in England circa 1870. A type of porcelain created in England in the early 1840s is now known by the name parian. When the porcelain body, with its marble-like appearance was first introduced, it was hailed as an inexpensive means for people to incorporate smaller versions of the enormous marble statues and busts found in stately homes into their homes. Parian wares generally had a higher proportion of feldspar, which contributed to a more vitrified surface finish, a translucency to the body, and, because of its iron content, a warmer firing color. However, the exact makeup of the porcelain body varied amongst manufacturers. This piece shows a double bowl design with the wrist of the lady's hand acting as one bowl and the basket she is holding acting as another. The hand is wearing a light blue bracelet and the basket has a light blue ribbon tied to the top. The interior of the bowls show a light yellow color. The base shows intricate floral designs with some yellow coloring throughout. The bottom shows a makers mark of a crown and "R". The piece shows good condition overall with little to no wear present. No cracks or chips are present. The piece measures 3 1/2" L x 7 5/8" W x 4 3/4" H and weighs 1 pound and 12 ounces.
