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."
