FIRST
PERIOD WORCESTER FINE COFFEE CUP WITH GROOVED HANDLE, THE MAN
IN THE PAVILION PATTERN BFS II.B.1 C.1758
"A
fine early Worcester coffee cup transfer printed in underglaze blue
with the Man in the Pavilion pattern. The blue and
white design dates from 1757-60 and is considered to be the first of
the underglaze blue Worcester printed patterns. This slender Worcester
coffee cup shape, with grooved handle and slightly everted narrow
tapering rim, is a delight. A particularly rare find for your very
special collection." Antiques Expert Hamilton Bear.
