ENGLISH PORCELAIN COFFEE CUP, G.F. BOWERS PATTERN
NUMBER 632 , JAPAN STYLE, CHINOISERIE DESIGN

"An attractive early
Victorian English porcelain coffee cup of fine quality. Similar to
pieces by the later Worcester and Coalport factories. A gem of a
cup - Staffordshire made, by G.F. Bowers who produced fine china
for a few short years c.1842-68. Pattern 632 is a striking
printed and hand coloured Japan style chinoiserie
inspiration. This unique 19th century cup shape design was
registered by Bowers at the UK patent office in June 1848. A great
and rare example for the discerning collector and display."Antiques Expert Hamilton
