Antique Wedgwood Teapot, Teacups Saucers Sugar Pot & Jug. Opulent Gold CAIRO

  

Extremely Rare Antique Wedgwood Part Tea Set: Teapot, Four Teacups; Four Saucers; Handled Sugar Pot with a Lid and a Milk Jug. (I do not have plates) These antique pieces are exceptionally Rare!

Numbered'Y4065' (c1891-c1900) Opulent Gold. I believe these are in Wedgwoods'CAIRO' pattern.

I've seen it in other colour-ways on Pearlware. This gold version is bone china; (porcelain) Made in England. These are over 125 years old! All fit for purpose; but please read extensive descriptions for each below.

The teapot; saucers; sugar pot and milk jug are in very good antique condition! Completely clean; healthy ring; no chips; no cracks; no hairlines; no crazing; no staining; no cutlery marks; no plaint loss to the floral detail; no glaze wear and excellent gold trim.

The only minor factory issues: there's a little kiln grit inside the jug and on the inner lip of the teapot rim (see last two photos) Negligible! As left the factory from the time of coal fired kilns; and on the underside of the lid knob - there's two small firing lines: as left the factory (see photo no 19). The teacups have a few kiln grit freckles under the glaze and there's some pale mottling: see photos 20-22 I can't tell if this is as left the factory or age related?

Otherwise the teacups retain a very healthy ring; no chips; no cracks; no hairlines, no cutlery marks; no paint loss and overall very good gold gilding. Small Teapot measures 7 1/2 inches long (19cm) measured from the tip of the spout to the end of the handle. Saucers = 5 1/8th (13cm wide).

Teacups stand just shy of 2 1/2" inches tall (6cm) with a brim width of 3 1/2" inches wide (just shy of 9cm).
