Sailors Farewell Covered Sugar Bowl In Multi

A charming depiction of high-seas adventure—both above and below the water—brightens this finely crafted bone china sugar bowl. Accented with 22-karat gold detail, the art by Kit Kemp is inspired by her textile design and blends her love of craft and simple, lyrical folk art.

Sailor's Farewell is the second collaboration between Wedgwood and renowned, awardwinning interior designer Kit Kemp, whose style is about whimsical storytelling, color and imagination The collection is derived from a fabric she designed for Chelsea Textiles, inspired by a beautiful drawing by John Craxton depicting a Sailor's wife waving farewell Blending Kit's love of craft and simple, lyrical folk art, the sailor's lovedone is waving goodbye on a rock with her scarf flying in the wind As she waves, the witty motifs around each china piece show the sailor's adventures on the high seas, both above and below the waterline The rust red sails of his sailing ship pass by whales and merfolk fishing, there are two little dogs alone on the high seas, seagulls flying above the lighthouse and the enticing sight of a house under a palm tree on a faraway desert island Below in the depths is a frogman, a curious octopus and the flashing fins of many fish The delicate pale blue linen finish of the original fabric design is discernible on the tableware with a stronger blue and 22 karat gold hand applied lining around the rim The Sailor's Farewell Covered Sugar pictures a curious octopus with two dogs sailing on the water above Beautifully presented in Wedgwood's signature blue gift box, each piece is made in England, crafted in fine bone china and finished with 22 karat gold Made of fine bone china with 22karat gold banding Approx. 7.87/6.5"W x 5.2"T Size (ounces): 14.54 Item Weight (Lbs.): 1.4 Imported
