A good Worcester quatrelobed coffee cup, circa 1753Of quatrelobed form, the moulded doubled-scrolled handle with a raised thumbrest, the front panel painted with a 'Long Eliza' figure carrying a parasol, the side panels with flowering plants growing from rockwork, one with a green and yellow bird perched on its branches, 6.8cm highFootnotes:ProvenanceRalph Kenber CollectionSmall numbers of similar cups have survived together, suggesting some at least were sold in sets, probably for use as 'cappuchine' coffee cups which would have been passed around on a silver tray. It is equally likely that cups as fine as this example would have been sold individually as cabinet pieces, to be enjoyed for their sheer novelty and for the quality of the casting and decoration. See lots 12-14 in this sale for further examples from the John Alchin Collection.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
A Worcester coffee cup, circa 1753Of octagonal form with a silver-shaped handle, the sides painted with flowering plants alternating with insects in flight, 6cm highFootnotes:ProvenanceSimon Spero exhibition, 2006, no.21Ralph Kenber CollectionOctagonal coffee cups are recorded with three different handle forms and occur in two sizes. It is significant that no matching saucers have seen for cups of this pattern or type. A pair of similar cups is illustrated by Simon Spero, The Klepser Collection (1984), p.29, no.15.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
A Worcester moulded creamjug, circa 1753-55Of lobed pear shape with a scrolling silver-shaped handle, painted with a Chinese figure holding a wand, flowering plants and rockwork to the right and a red fence to the left, a brightly coloured bird on a flower branch to the reverse and two tiny moths below the spout, 8.5cm highFootnotes:ProvenanceThe Cohen Collection, Albert Amor exhibition 1992, no.18Simon Spero exhibition, 2015, no.35The model is probably derived from silver by way of saltglazed stoneware. The painting of the Chinese figure has a slightly different feel to that on other pieces from the same class perhaps due to the more unusual colouring, the standard pink tunic replaced by taupe, a colour also used to highlight the flowers and rockwork.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 rare Worcester shell dish, circa 1754-55Of scallop shell shape with a crescent-shaped grip at the base and intricate formal moulding on the underside, painted in an unusual combination of colours with Chinese flowering plants, the buds and petals washed in red and purple, the veins of leaves picked out with fine gilt lines, 10.8cm longFootnotes:ProvenanceSimon Spero Exhibition 1989, no.33Zorensky CollectionRalph Kenber CollectionIllustrated by Sandon and Spero, The Zorensky Collection (1996), p.144, no.130.

The grip at the bottom of the shell is a relatively unusual feature.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
A rare Worcester butter cooler and cover, circa 1756-8Of moulded oval shape imitating a slatted wooden dairy buttertub, pierced all over with small holes and set on four scroll feet, with hoops picked out in yellow and painted with colourful Meissen-style flowers, the cover with a naturalistic fruit finial, 14.1cm wide (2)Footnotes:ProvenancePhelps Collection, Christie's sale, 1 October 1984, lot 8Zorensky Collection, Bonhams sale, 16 March 2004, lot 24Ralph Kenber CollectionMeissen Style FlowersChina shops in 18th century London were dominated by imports from China. A very limited amount of Meissen porcelain was available and anything painted with European flowers made a refreshing change from famille rose. Chelsea was able to borrow and copy Meissen painted with 'deutsche Blumen' and this proved hugely popular in England. Worcester saw their chance and copied the Chelsea copies of Meissen. Success was guaranteed.For a similar example see John Sandon, Dictionary of Worcester Porcelain (1993), col. pl.99. The shape was first made in silver, while related objects are known in Chelsea, Derby, Japanese and Meissen porcelains as well as Dutch Delft. The pierced holes allowed condensation to drain off the butter, caused by the change in temperature when it was brought in from the dairy.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
A rare large Worcester mug, circa 1754Of 'Scratch Cross' type, bell-shaped on a wide foot with a grooved strap handle, transfer-printed in black with fancy birds, two long-tailed 'Pheasants', smaller birds squabbling in a tree above, also printed with a more plausible heron and duck, 14.5cm high, scratch cross and incised lineFootnotes:ProvenanceMrs von de Porten CollectionSir William Mullens CollectionE and J Handley CollectionSimon Spero exhibition 2000, no.29Ralph Kenber CollectionBased on a contemporary silver shape, this mug or tankard represents the earliest period of transfer-printing on English porcelain and would have provided a large 'canvas' on which to experiment with the new technique. The printed design appears in 'The Ladies' Amusement', the long-tailed birds referred to as 'pheasants'. A smaller mug with the same print from the Dyson Perrins Collection is illustrated by Cyril Cook, The Life and Work of Robert Hancock (1948), item 83, fig. 1.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
A Worcester hexagonal creamboat, circa 1753-54With a lobed and everted rim and an angular handle with scrolled thumbrest, crisply moulded on both sides with scrolled panels painted in famille rose style, one with a Chinese figure pointing to the right, the other with a similar figure, two insects below the spout and flower spays within the interior, 10.5cm longFootnotes:ProvenanceSimon Spero exhibition 1996, no.25John Alchin CollectionThe same standing Chinese figure is found on a moulded creamboat in the Zorensky Collection. See Bonhams sale, 23 February 2005, lot 2.Hexagonal CreamboatsA staple product of Worcester's early years, the hexagonal-shaped creamboat originated at Limehouse and continued at the Lund's Bristol factory. Creamboats of this general form are surprisingly rare in English silver of the period, customers preferring porcelain to pour a costly mixture of cream and sugar on their deserts. The low creamboat shape probably corresponds to the '...pannel'd cream ewers' from the factory's London warehouse price list. Surviving examples show enormous variety in the mouldings used on early Worcester creamboats; the examples in this sale illustrating just how much even the geranium leaves below the spout can differ in form.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 rare Worcester small mug, circa 1755-56Of silver shape and attractive small size, with a grooved and rounded base, painted in blue with the 'Warbler' pattern(I.C.4), the bird perched on a mound, flowering branches issuing from stylised rockwork to the reverse, the interior rim with a diaper and flowerhead border, 7.7cm high, workman's markFootnotes:ProvenanceZorensky Collection, Simon Spero exhibition, 2003, no.48John Alchin CollectionIllustrated by John Sandon, Dictionary of Worcester Porcelain (1993), p.358, and by Sandon and Spero, The Zorensky Collection (1996), p.418, no.555. The underside of this mug is flat and unglazed, which is a rare feature on Worcester porcelain. This shape was in production for a very limited period. The model was inspired by a slightly earlier silver form.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 Worcester sauceboat, circa 1755-58Of fluted silver shape on a high foot, the handle with a pronounced thumbrest, painted in blue with the 'Fisherman on a Towering Rock' pattern (I.B.13), 21.8cm long, workman's markFootnotes:ProvenanceJohn Alchin CollectionSauceboats and CreamboatsImported Chinese export porcelain gave early Worcester its inspiration, but it was also its main competition. In one important area, though, Worcester excelled. British customers wanted porcelain copies of silver sauceboats and creamboats, the most desirable luxury items. While brilliant in so many other ways, the Chinese never mastered the techniques of casting and moulding. Worcester seized the opportunity to make a product that was better than anything available from China. The fact that they made so many different models and moulds shows how far they succeeded.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
