Lot 433
A Chamberlains Worcester plate from the Duke of Cumberland service, circa 1806-07The central panel decorated with the full arms of the Duke of Cumberland including the Order of the Garter, lion and unicorn supporters and the motto 'Suscipere et Finire', the border elaborately decorated with the 'Rich Queens' pattern including panels of Japan-style chrysanthemums and wheatsheaves, 21.8cm diam, marked Chamberlains Worcester in purple scriptFootnotes:The patronage of the royal family was vital to the fortunes of the Chamberlain factory. In 1806 Ernest Augustus, Duke of Cumberland visited Worcester and toured the Chamberlain manufactory, placing an important order for an armorial service. This lavish set took more than a year to produce, for it was noticed by the Prince of Wales who visited Chamberlains in September 1807. See R W Binns, A Century of Potting in the City of Worcester (1865), p.153. With the agreement of their distinguished royal patrons, from 1808 Chamberlains proudly marked their best porcelain with 'manufacturers to their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales and Duke of Cumberland'. A specimen plate created by Chamberlains as part of the preparations for this set was in the Charles Wentworth Wass Collection, sold by Phillips on 6 December 1995, lot 299. This specimen differed from the present lot in the use of a shaded background to the arms and the absence of a motto. A single cup from the Duke of Cumberland set was sold by Bonhams on 7 June 2006, lot 224. Prior to this, a large part of the service was sold by the Hanoverian descendants of the Duke of Cumberland, later King of Hanover (1771-1851), in Sotheby's sale of Works of Art from the House of Hanover, 1-15th October, 2005, lot 2311.An elaborate jug painted with a view of Worcester and the arms of the Duke of Cumberland was sold by Bonhams on 10 December 2003, lot 189. It is possible this jug was intended to be presented to the Duke during his 1806 visit.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Like the painting of shells at the factory, it is likely that the artists had access to paint these from life.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Lot 450
A Barr, Flight and Barr Worcester vase, circa 1810Of classical form, applied with gilt birds' head and foliate handles, painted with a large panel with a titled Welsh view of 'Pont Yr Eden, over the River Mowddrdeh near Dolgelly, Merionethshire', probably by Samuel Smith, the salmon ground with elaborate neoclassical gilt borders, 25cm high, title and script mark with Coventry Street address and Royal patronageFootnotes:ProvenanceCharles Dawson CollectionAfter a painting by Thomas Walmsley, the source for the panel was engraved and published by Francis Jukes in 1799. The combination of this attractive salmon and gold ground and topographical painting appears to have been a popular one, favoured by Samuel Smith.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Lot 106
An engraved 'Friendly Hunt' firing glass of Jacobite interest, circa 1750The drawn trumpet bowl inscribed 'THE FRIENDLY HUNT' flanking a floral sprig, on a short plain stem and heavy conical foot, 8.9cm highFootnotes:The Friendly Hunt was a Worcestershire meet probably connected with a Jacobite society in Worcester known as The Friendly Association. Founded in 1747, the Association met annually in rotation in the neighbouring towns of Droitwich, Bromsgrove, Kidderminster and Stourbridge. A similar firing glass from The Ron and Mary Thomas Collection was sold by Bonhams on 4 June 2008, lot 39, which is illustrated by both Geoffrey B Seddon, The Jacobites and their Drinking Glasses (1995), p.120, pl.86 and by Arthur Churchill, History in Glass (1937), pl.20, no.92. Two further examples were sold by Bonhams on 29 September 2020, lot 47 and 15 December 2020, lot 6.

King George III originally commissioned this service in 1805 and continued to add additional pieces throughout the Flight, Barr and Barr period of the Worcester factory. A jug from the service is illustrated and discussed by John Sandon, The Ewers-Tyne Collection of Worcester Porcelain at Cheekwood (2008), p.112-113. The majority of pieces remain in the Royal Collection, including a smaller platter (inv. no.RCIN 58459).

Royal Worcester's display in Chicago was remarkably comprehensive, covering almost every aspect of its ornamental production. At the time, very few Worcester craftsmen were permitted to sign their work and only two senior painters, Charley Baldwyn and Edward Salter were occasionally allowed to sign their names on their vases.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

A very large Royal Worcester vase and cover by Harry Davis, dated 1899The elaborate modelling in the neo-Renaissance manner including masks, swags and grotesques, the front panel painted with a landscape view, perhaps Matlock High Tor, signed H Davis, reserved on a deep blue ground with raised paste gilding as a floral frame, 49.5cm high, factory mark in grey with date code for 1899, shape number 1398 (2)Footnotes:Harry Davis would have been aged just fourteen or fifteen when he painted this vase in 1899. At this time Harry was still serving his apprenticeship under the supervision of Edward Salter. That the young Harry was permitted to sign this vase shows the great respect that the Royal Worcester factory felt for their young painter's abilities. The raised gilding around the painted panel may possibly be the work of Harry's grandfather, Josiah Davis.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Lot 432
A fine Flight Worcester plate from the Duke of Clarence service, circa 1789The elaborate border of entwined bands in blue and green ribbon fitted within the scalloped edge and enclosing Orders of the Garter, St Andrew and the Thistle, with sprigs of roses and thistles in between, the central royal arms of the Duke of Clarence flanked by laurel and oak leaves and hung with the Order of St Andrew, 24.2cm diam, marked 'Flight' with a crown and crescent in underglaze blueFootnotes:This was the first of two important royal orders that Prince William Henry placed with Flight's factory in Worcester. His parents, King George III and Queen Charlotte, had visited Flight's on a much-publicised visit in 1788 and possibly it was the King who encouraged his son to order a special dessert service to commemorate his having been awarded the Order of the Thistle along with the title 'Duke of Clarence and St Andrews'. The year 1789 also saw the Duke retire from active service as a Rear Admiral. This perhaps inspired the design of the service, which was said to be controversial at the time in view of the dramatic colours that were used. The central victory wreath around the royal arms features oak leaves, a reference to the British Navy. The Duke of Clarence must have been pleased with the completed service, for the following year he chose Flight's factory to make for him a larger and even more splendid dinner service, now known as the 'Hope' service. A plate from this set, Worcester's first royal armorial service, is in the Ewers-Tyne Collection of Worcester porcelain at Cheekwood and is illustrated and discussed in John Sandon's catalogue (2008), p.98, no.60. See also Charles Dawson, Worcester Flight and Barr Porcelain (2023), pp.45-46.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Lot 480
A Barr, Flight and Barr Worcester mug, circa 1805Printed and carefully hand-coloured with a large panel depicting a detailed view of Worcester, showing the smoke billowing from the porcelain factory on the banks of the Severn, on a pink ground, the scrolled handle with a thumbrest and picked out in gold, 9.2cm highFootnotes:ProvenanceCharles Dawson CollectionAlthough unmarked, mugs of this form usually date to the late Flight, or Flight and Barr periods. This mug must have been made not long after the new partnership dictated new signage above the factory, shown in the print as 'BARR FLIGHT & BARR ROYAL CHINA MANUFACTORY'. For comparison, see the sepia painted version of this view on a mug made a few years earlier, before the second Mr Barr joined, sold by Bonhams on 1 December 2021, lot 451.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Lot 449
An important Barr, Flight and Barr Worcester teacup and saucer by William Billingsley, circa 1808-10With a gilt ring handle, painted in a characteristic style by William Billingsley, with circular panels of garden flowers set against a sky blue background, the pale peach-coloured ground gilt with vermicelli and anthemions, saucer 13.5cm diam, impressed crown and BFB marks, printed mark referring to Royal patronage and Coventry Street address (2)Footnotes:ProvenanceBonhams, 3 October 2012, lot 199Charles Dawson CollectionIllustrated by Charles Dawson, Worcester Flight & Barr Porcelain (2023), p.100, fig.10.7. Dawson discusses the work of William Billingsley on pp.197-204. Billingsley's time at Worcester is also discussed by John Sandon, The Dictionary of Worcester Porcelain (1993), pp.66-67. Sandon illustrates a similar teacup and saucer and also a related slop bowl. Significantly, these pieces are very much in the Derby tradition of flower painting where some special cabinet pieces were painted with flowers against a sky-coloured background, a technique previously unknown at Worcester. Barr, Flight and Barr must have known that Billingsley was fleeing from his creditors and managed to engage him as a painter for little more than the wages of a common hand. Following his arrival in 1808, Billingsley probably painted flowers for the next two years, before he turned his attention to the improvement of the kilns and developing a new porcelain body. During this time, he appears to have been a prolific painter of table services but was allowed very little freedom to work on cabinet pieces such as this luxurious cup and saucer.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Owen had a special arrangement with the Royal Worcester factory in which his pieces were sold to them individually, before they were gilded and then sold on often many years later, see John Sandon, Investigating George Owen: The Lydia Starr Collection, Ars Ceramica, No.24 (2008), pp.14-5.
