Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be an antique late victorian era ironstone pottery bowl and pitcher, raised acanthus leaf design, transfer printed and sprayed, with a "warranted" royal coat of arms lion and unicorn shield mark at the base, apparently part of a "Sydney" pattern. This might have been produced by Moore & Co circa 1900. The estimate is based on similar items offered or sold at auction. There is no measurement for the sentimental value you might attach to the item.
Thank you!! I would like to sell this item.
