An extremely fine George III Dish Cross made in London in 1772 by William Plummer.
The Dish Cross is of typical "X" form with sliding supports. The shaped base of each support is modelled to simulate a flower head. The top section of the support, where the dish would be placed, is also pierced with a stylised fan shaped design.
The section where the supports slide along the arms is pierced with trellis work and the arms each terminate in a stylised flower head.
The central baluster burner would have contained the wick and paraffin and has a detachable cover which is decorated with gadrooned and reeded bands.
The Dish Cross is in excellent condition and is of a beautiful design. This piece is very well marked on the burner, each of the arms and the feet - in total in eleven places.
