The piece belongs to the factory's premier 'Blue Fluted' (Pattern No. 1) collection, elevated by the addition of original gilding along the sweeping scalloped edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eDating to the 1870-1890 period, the underside features the historic blue wavy lines mark without the green crown, which is the standard backstamp for this era. It also bears the hand-painted painter's number '15'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe Blue Fluted pattern was the very first design produced by Royal Copenhagen when the factory was established in 1775. Each piece requires meticulous hand-painting, resulting in minor, unique variations in the brushwork. The combination of the early manufacturing period, the specific leaf mould, and the gilded edge make this a highly collectible example of early Royal Copenhagen wares.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 18px; margin-top: 30px; border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc; padding-bottom: 5px;\"\u003eItem Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 15px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #f9f9f9; border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold; width: 40%;\"\u003eMaker \u0026amp; Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eRoyal Copenhagen (Denmark)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003ePattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eBlue Fluted (Pattern 1)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #f9f9f9; border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eEstimated Era\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e1870 - 1890\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eQuality Marker\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eFirst Quality\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 20px; margin-top: 30px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1; min-width: 250px; background: #fafafa; border: 1px solid #eee; border-left: 4px solid #f39c12; padding: 15px;\"\u003e\n        \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 16px; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eCondition Assessment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n        \u003cul style=\"font-size: 15px; padding-left: 20px; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003ePresented in excellent overall condition commensurate with its age.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eNo visible chips, cracks, crazing, or restoration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eThe blue underglaze remains exceptionally crisp.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eThe gilded edge displays minor, typical age-related wear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eSlight rubbing to the underside base.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003ePlease review all provided high-resolution photographs carefully.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1; min-width: 250px; background: #fafafa; border: 1px solid #eee; border-left: 4px solid #2ecc71; padding: 15px;\"\u003e\n        \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 16px; margin-top: 0;\"\u003ePackaging \u0026amp; Dispatch\u003c\/h3\u003e\n        \u003cul style=\"font-size: 15px; padding-left: 20px; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eSecurely packed using protective materials.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eFast 1-2 day dispatch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFree UK Delivery.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree 30-Day Returns\u003c\/strong\u003e included.\u003c\/li\u003e\n            \u003cli\u003eFully tracked international shipping via eBay GSP.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Royal Copenhagen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52899601088859,"sku":null,"price":756.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0936\/4986\/3003\/files\/57_0ccb61b2-963d-4d0c-9dee-cedc25f66033.png?v=1777554355","url":"https:\/\/gifteduk.com\/products\/antique-1870s-royal-copenhagen-blue-fluted-leaf-candy-dish-gold-edge-1st-quality","provider":"Gifted UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
