Wonderful early and rare Shelley Foley Wileman Trio in the Snowdrops pattern # 9174.

Decorated with Snowdrop flowers on a mint green ground with an abundance of gold gilding outling every detail.

I have seen the snowdrops pattern many times but I have never seen this pattern with the gold hand gilding outlining each flower and leaf - it is a wonderful example of Wileman at its best. The time taken to hand gild the outline of the flowers must have been very time consuming and expensive to produce.

Daisy shape.

Cup measures 3.5\" dia x 2.5\" tall
Saucer measures 5.75\" dia
Side Plate measures 7.125\" dia

Circa 1890-1910

In very good condition - no chips, cracks or restoration, the odd small area of gilding loss which does not distract - see photos.

Bases stamped Wileman 
A fine addition to any collection.
