Antique Arthur Woods Blue & White Willow Pattern Teapot Stand
This stunning antique willow pattern teapot stand, is an exceptionally fine example! An early piece by Arthur Woods, it clearly it has been well cared for over the years and in excellent condition.
It has an unusually dark cobalt, almost flow blue pattern, edged to its central roundel and rim in shiny gilt.
We love how blue and white china is perfect for mixing with existing tableware, this making an ideal breakfast staple, or for a 'picture perfect' dresser display.
Key Points:
• A 'Willow Pattern' teapot stand
• A country cottage staple, for dining or display!
• Produced by Arthur Woods, Longport, Stoke-on-Trent, England
• Marked to base AW L Willow
• Excellent vintage condition
History:
This widely collected pattern comes in varying Chinoiserie designs, inspired by fashionable hand-painted blue-and-white wares imported from China.
So the poem goes:
Two birds flying high,
A Chinese vessel, sailing by.
A bridge with three men, sometimes four,
A willow tree, hanging o’er.
A Chinese temple, there it stands,
Built upon the river sands.
An apple tree, with apples on,
A crooked fence to end my song.
Year of manufacture:
1904 - 1928
Origin:
England
Approximate Measurements:
W: (16.5cm) Diameter
H: 2cm

In excellent antique condition throughout, with light signs of wear to its front face from use, a little age related crazing and some patchy losses to its gilt edging. A lovely and scarce early gilt example by Arthur Woods.

Buyers Guide:
It is very important to note, that all the pieces Roof + Roof sell are genuine pieces of age, each having a rich and varied past and are never sold as in new condition. With this in mind, minor blemishes, surface scratches, manufacturing flaws and a general sense of their age and history are naturally to be expected. We always try, to the best of our ability to honestly and clearly communicate an items condition, both in our description and photography, highlighting anything over and above what we perceive as ‘general age related wear and tear'. We kindly ask you look closely at all our photos, using the zoom facility, as these naturally form part of the item's description.
Please be aware that your monitor, tablet, or mobile device may emulate colours/tones differently 'on screen' to that of the actual physical item, all of which are photographed and shown to the best of our abilities. Any item/prop shown in our photography is used for styling purposes only. Prior to purchasing, if you would like further clarification on any item, then we are always happy to help in any way possible.
