Lot 212
A Chamberlains, Worcester 'Dragons in Compartments' or 'Bengal Tiger' trio, late 18th century, comprising coffee cup, teacup and saucer, bears Roderick Jellicoe paper label and original purchase price of £180, sold with a plate stand, one piece painted no75 in puce, otherwise unmarked (4) (at fault)
Lot 23
A large Caughley teacup from the Prince of Wales service, circa 1790, of fluted and lobed shape, richly decorated by Chamberlains, Worcester with a border of blue lozenges, all gilt, edged with gilt ribbons, swags and large floral sprays, reserved with an oval cartouche containing the crowned Prince of Wales plume and motto 'Ich Dien', unmarked, 8cm high See CW&P, page 205, plate 73, alongside 'Caughley Porcelains' - A Bi-Centenary Exhibition', pl.23, Cat. 341 for a similar example of the cup, which is recorded in Chamberlain records as the 'Prince's Feather's' pattern. This pattern is also discussed more extensively within The Caughley in Colour Exhibition Catalogue of 2005, produced by the Ironbridge Gorge Museum trust on page 15, where the author notes 'The period over which Caughley was produced was one of scandal in the Royal family. There was the 'madness' of King George III and much political attention to the overspending of the Prince of Wales. The cartoonists were lampooning the Prince of Wales mercilessly and he seemed to have few friends other than his brother, Frederick Duke of York and the Fox/Sheridan combination who saw him as a way of displacing Pitt. It is therefore unlikely that these wares were made for the public and it seem almost certain that they were for royal use'.
Lot 234
A Chamberlain's, Worcester armorial dinner plate in the Dragon's in Compartments pattern, also known as 'Bengal Tiger', pattern, circa 1800-1810, the plate decorated with a central shield with family crest above of a bird perched upon a castle turret, factory mark in purple, also marked 'No 75', 24cm diameter (riveted repair)
Lot 235

Lot 25
A Caughley polychrome tea bowl, circa 1785-90, painted with flowers, below a red line and purple border, unmarked, 8cm diameter See Caughley In Colour, page 68 for a discussion of this pattern, which is noted as being 'a variant of a famille rose pattern. These were popular and are found on Bow, Worcester and New Hall amongst others. Item 158, is noted as being the most authentic version, with its darker crysanthemum flower, similar to this tea bowl and its pink lattice rim.'
Lot 250

Lot 54
A rare Caughley dessert tureen stand, circa 1788-93, painted in a light, bright underglaze blue colour, combined with an elaborate Gold Star and Spangles gilded border, central panel painted with a vista of a man and packhorse crossing a lake, with ruins beyond, unmarked, 23cm wide See PS&CP, pps. 43-106 for an extensive discussion on this design. By the release of Godden's book on Caughley and Worcester porcelains, the author knew of only six pieces in this pattern. It was Gaye Blake Roberts who first shed significant light on these designs in 1974 within an English Ceramic Circle Transaction paper in which it was reported that the source of several scenes from a Bright Landscapes dessert service were taken from Paul Sandby's Virtouosis' Museum published in 1778. The Gold Star Border and Spangles dessert service was first illustrated in 1969 by Godden. Research has shown that there are at least two dessert services with this gilt design.
Lot 61
A large Caughley porter mug, circa 1780, transfer-printed in underglaze blue with the La Promenade Chinoise pattern, accompanied by the secondary print La Peche, painted C mark, 12cm high and 13cm diameter See C & W P page 133 for a discussion of this subject and the differences between Caughley and Worcester versions and also plates 258 and 259 for Worcester and Caughley examples. See also CBE catalogue no. 426 for an example, here called the 'Fishing' pattern.
