An utterly fabulous antique biscuit barrel, Royal Worcester Country Loaf faux bread circa 1900/1901. From 1889 to 1902, when Grainger & Co, a prominent British ceramics factory, was acquired by Royal Worcester, both marks were used when producing pieces at the Grainger Worcester factory.
Shaped to look like a freshly baked country loaf, this marvellous object is a perfect example of Victorian whimsy and would look stunning in any collection.
The only thing that gives the game away is its handsome silver-plated fittings and hinged lid.
Approx 17cm diameter at widest point, 15cm high.
Excellent antique condition with minor wear overall commensurate with age.
