About MeSpiral fluted tea bowls, and saucers with repeated pattern of pink flowers and puce motifs joined by gilded ribbon. The fluting, which is particular to Worcester in this period and the popularity of tea bowls at this time, are both clues in identifying when and where these pieces were made.
