TWO SIMILAR DR WALL WORCESTER PORCELAIN TEA CADDIES

Height of tallest 13.5cm

Estimate $600 - $900

Sold for $600

One has staining to inside of neck, probably old adhesive tape residue, also slight glaze imperfection to footrim but this appears to be original: the other has a tiny bruise to the porcelain, and two scratches to the gilt enamel but this could be original, overall they are both in good condition, no repairs under UV light.
