Exquisitely crafted in 1862 by Ashton & Sons in Staffordshire, England, this rare Blue and White Chinoiserie Drainer is a masterpiece of refined 19th century taste. Each element—from the elegant hand-pierced pattern to the richly layered cobalt transfer—reflects the exceptional quality for which Ashton & Sons is so admired. The enchanting chinoiserie tableau, with its serene pagoda, flowing water, and delicate foliage, evokes the dreamy, faraway landscapes that captivated 19th-century Europe. Over 160 years of gentle aging have softened the glaze and enhanced the surface with a desirable, time-honored patina.
Once used for presenting the most beautiful meat or fish dishes in an elegant home, this drainer is now a statement piece of decor—a luminous addition to your curated blue-and-white collection. Displayed on a stand or hung on a wall, it brings both presence and poetry to your interiors. Pieces of this caliber by Ashton & Sons seldom come to market.
