I was wondering if anyone may be able to help date this Sowerby Posy Basket. It carries the raised Sowerby Peakcock mark to the inside along with an annoyingly indistinct date registration lozenge. Basically, all that is discernible is the capital 'R' and the bottom corner of the diamond, which looks like it could hold an 'R' or 'K' or even an 'A'. Unfortunately, there is nothing else to go on as its barely readable, however, hoped someone may recognise the pattern/design.
Measures 4.5 inches long and 2.5 inches tall.
Has a clear band around the top decorated in a recurring pattern of peacocks and flowers.
All thoughts appreciated.
Thanks,
Greg
