A rare Lambeth (Thomas Morgan and Abigail Griffith) delftware ballooning charger, circa 1785With the ascent of Vincenzo Lunardi's balloon painted in blue, green and manganese, a building with a fence and trees in the foreground, a swagged border within the blue feathered rim, 34.5cm diamFootnotes:Vincenzo Lunardi, 'The Daredevil Aeronaut' first demonstrated his hot air balloon in London on 15 September 1784, accompanied by a dog, a cat and a caged pigeon. Setting off from Artillery Ground in Finsbury, the Morning Chronicle reported that 'the general attention of the town and its inhabitants of all ranks, from the Countess to the Cobler's Wife, and from my Lady in St. James' square to my Lord. The little crooked shoe-shiner in an alley in Shoreditch, has been for some days past engrossed by Mr. Lunardi and his Balloon'. Spectators were estimated between 150,000 and 200,000 strong, including the Prince of Wales himself. The nearby pottery at Lambeth joined other tradesmen and artists in creating a memento of the day and of the new and exciting 'Balloon-mania', which had gripped the population. It is very rare to find a charger decorated with this subject, with plates being more common. For a plate with the same subject, see lot 245 in this sale.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

An important documentary Liverpool (Seth Pennington) jug, dated 1798Painted perhaps by William Jackson, of generous baluster form with a turned spreading foot and scroll-moulded spout, with a distinctive three-scroll handle, finely painted in blue with a typical three-storey Liverpool windmill, the Liverpool Infirmary and further buildings in the distance, the reverse inscribed 'J; SHAW 1798' below a complex printed floral border with two butterflies in flight, 24.3cm highFootnotes:ProvenanceWatney CollectionIllustrated and discussed by Bernard Watney, 'Fragments from Liverpool: The Pennington Manufactories', ECC Trans, Vol.15, Pt.2 (1994), pp.283-5, figs.2 and 3 and by Bernard Watney, Liverpool Porcelain (1997), pp.99-100 and 102, figs.394, 401 and dustjacket. Exhibited in the Liverpool Exhibition, Phillips 1997. The date on this important jug indicates that it was made by Seth Pennington at Shaw's Brow, just a year before the factory was put up for sale. The moulding on the handle and lip are derived from earlier examples made by Philip Christian at the factory. It was made for Jeremiah Shaw, who operated a mill near Liverpool Infirmary, and it is likely that the building depicted in the distance is the Infirmary itself. Watney suggests that the style of the painting, which is reminiscent of delftware, coupled with the meticulous attention to detail suggests that William Jackson, the ship and 'prospect' painter, was the decorator responsible.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
A very rare Liverpool (Samuel Gilbody) cornucopia wall pocket, circa 1758-60Of spirally fluted form, the flared lobed rim moulded in low relief with berried leaves left in the white against a blue ground, the spiral moulding picked in blue with trailing foliage, 20.8cm highFootnotes:ProvenanceWatney Collection, Phillips, 10 May 2000, lot 668Illustrated by Bernard Watney, Liverpool Porcelain (1997), p.57, fig.216 and exhibited at Phillips Liverpool Exhibition in the same year. A similar example is illustrated by Maurice Hillis, Liverpool Porcelain (2011), p.306, fig.7.70, where the author notes its extreme rarity. Related shapes are found in contemporary English pottery. A delftware wall pocket dated 1748 and most likely made in Liverpool is illustrated by Louis L Lipski, Dated English Delftware (1984), p.356, no.1568. However, a more direct influence may be from English saltglaze. See Arnold R Mountford, Staffordshire Salt-glazed Stoneware (1971), fig.34 for a block mould for a cornucopia with a very similar border to the present lot.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
