Note:
The Collection of Professor J.E.Webb (1915-2011) (for more information on Professor Webb, please see lot 223).
For many years the charger was used as a jardinière which left a heavy calcium deposit on the glaze. Work to remove the deposits was completed to reveal the glaze and fluting beneath.
