Halls Fine Art Auctioneers

Lot 346

An early Worcester fluted octagonal coffee cup circa 1753-54 painted in polychrome in the Chinese manner with scattered insects and flowering plants, scroll handle, unmarked, 5.5cm high See Simon Spero and John Sandon, Worcester Porcelain 1751 - 1790 The Zorensky Collection, 1st edn (Suffolk, Antique Collectors' Club Ltd), p.73 for a similar example. Coffee cups of this shape were issued in two sizes and with three different handle forms, with the smaller size sometimes even lacking a handle altogether. Octagonal teaware were produced by Worcester from 1753 but continued for a period of no more than five years for the polychrome and only several years longer for the blue and white. Provenance: Ex. Wychwood Collection.

Halls Fine Art Auctioneers

Lot 347

A Worcester scallop shell dish circa 1756-68 painted in blue with the Two Peony Rock Bird pattern with a bird perched on a tall pierced rock flanked by flowering plants, scroll border, the thumb rest with leaves, workman's mark in underglaze blue, 9.5cm wide Provenance: Ex. Wychwood Collection. Notes: Whilst trade ships brought graduated nests of Chinese porcelain scallop shell dishes over to England in abundance during the early 18th century, the 1750s saw an increasing scarcity in supply and English factories worked to meet the local consumer demand. Such dishes were used for serving both pickles and sweetmeats on a typical well-to-do family's formal dining table.

Lot 349

A Worcester yellow ground teabowl circa 1768 with 'chrysanthemum' pattern moulding in low relief enamelled over with a wide band of yellow, the border with puce scrollwork and scattered flower and leaf sprigs below gilt lined upper rim, the interior of the bowl with a single painted rose bud, unmarked, 9cm diameter (restored) Provenance: Ex. Wychwood and ex. Zorensky Collection. See Bonhams, 13 December 2006, lot 212 for an almost identical tea bowl and saucer which sold for £2,100 inc. premium. Notes: The closure of the Chelsea factory saw many new opportunities for Worcester to expand their design range. Benefiting from the sudden availability of skilled Chelsea painters and new London premises it was now possible to directly appeal to the taste of the London market and create a series of high taste, full coloured grounds which signifed a significant shift of production for the factory in the 1770s.

Halls Fine Art Auctioneers

Lot 351

An unusual Worcester outside-decorated and dated mug, dated 1760 of plain cylindrical form with a grooved handle, printed in underglaze blue with the rare 'Man Leaning on a Fence' pattern, including chinosierie fanciful landscape to the reverse, the print over-filled with opaque pink, orange and green enamel colours with traces of gilding, inscribed below handle with the initials R.D and the date 1760, further traces of inscription to the base, 11.7cm high (cracked in two and riveted) Notes: This mug was discussed by Branyan, French and Sandon (1989), pattern II.A.14. Related painting in enamels exist on other early Worcester blue transfer-prints, suggesting this particular 'clobbering' was the work of a contemporary independent decorator, making this mug the earliest known dated piece of blue transfer-print. Provenance: Ex.Wychwood Collection. Previously ex. Godden Reference, McWilliams and Jeremy Lever Collections, most recently purchased at Bonhams on 7 March 2007, lot 54.

This 'Fan' pattern was also copied at Meissen. Provenance: Ex. Wychwood Collection.

Wychwood Collection. Purchased on 1st February 2005 at Law Fine Art. Notes: Although sometimes attributed to James Giles atelier, it is likely this design was factory-decorated instead. Despite best efforts, Worcester never successfully mastered the technique of combining the printed outline with an application of enamel colours and so the additional decoration was eventually abandoned.

Halls Fine Art Auctioneers

Lot 365

An early Worcester reeded coffee can circa 1753-54 the small, flared cup moulded with corrugated flutes, the rim and foot both slightly lobed, double scroll handle with slight thumbrest, painted with two budding leafy branches beneath border of half-flowerheads, leaves and red scroll motifs, 5.2cm high (some losses to the green enamel) Notes: Many variations of this popular pattern were painted on 'ribbed' cans at this date, although the running leaf border and spreading branches on this example are somewhat unusual. The price card of Worcester's London warehouse, c.1755-6, lists 'ribb'd' cans selling for 8 shillings a dozen. These would have been decorated in blue and white, which had replaced the coloured examples by the mid-1750s. Provenance: Ex. Wychwood and R. David Butti Collections. Purchased from 'Important Worcester Porcelain, the R. David Butti Collection' at Bonhams on 10th May 2006, lot number 49.

This artist's work is usually found on slightly faulty pieces and use is made of large numbers of flying birds to conceal kiln specks and blemishes. Provenance: Ex. Wychwood and Bernard Watney Collections. Purchased from Watney Collection Pt. III at Phillips on 1st November 2000, lot 987.

Although this style of floral decoration with green borders is widely associated with the Marchioness of Huntly who sold a dessert service in this pattern in 1882, there are certainly far too many tea and dessert wares for this ever solely have been the sole commission.
