FINE
SILVER SHAPE STAFFORDSHIRE PORCELAIN RIDGWAY
STYLE CREAMER C.1825-1835 ATTRIBUTED TO
HILDITCH
"An interesting, rare and
attractive Staffordshire porcelain silver shape creamer jug of
fine quality. Easily mistaken for Ridgway: most probably made by
Hilditch circa 1825-35. Hilditch are best known for producing the
cream of the Staffordshire chinoiserie-cottage style wares.
This fine, footed, cabinet-class cream pitcher, must rank among
their best work."
