And frankly, this one had better taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis antique two-piece wash basin and pitcher set was made by Wedgwood \u0026amp; Co. of England and carries the green “Imperial Porcelain – Wedgwood \u0026amp; Co. – England” crown mark. It is important to note that Wedgwood \u0026amp; Co. was a separate English manufacturer from the better-known Josiah Wedgwood company. Reference material dates this form of Imperial Porcelain mark to the early 20th century, with examples appearing from about 1906 onward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe basin measures approximately 14 inches across. Both pieces share a wonderfully graphic pattern of black checkerboard bands and black linear trelliswork wrapped with pink and purple roses and green foliage. Fine black bow-and-swag decoration adds another layer beneath the florals, and a thin gold edge finishes the basin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTogether they make a substantial decorative statement for a bedroom, bathroom, guest room, floral display, or anywhere that needs something with a little Edwardian-era confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: Good antique condition overall with age-related surface wear, staining\/marks inside the basin, light decoration wear and typical signs of use. No obvious major chips or cracks were visible in the supplied photos, but this is a large antique set and buyers should review all photographs carefully. Gold trim and transfer decoration show expected wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNote on shipping: this is a large and fragile item. Shipping costs are high because of the weight and fragility of the item. Collectors in the PNW\/Spokane\/Seattle area can arrange to meet or for delivery for an updated delivery fee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA note for collectors: this is Wedgwood \u0026amp; Co., not Josiah Wedgwood \u0026amp; Sons.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Antique Dealer's Daughter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44037720703050,"sku":"M-0807-09","price":325.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0698\/7893\/9722\/files\/20260807_185611.jpg?v=1786159196","url":"https:\/\/antiquedealersdaughter.com\/products\/antique-wedgwood-co-imperial-porcelain-wash-basin-pitcher","provider":"The Antique Dealer's Daughter","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
