Rare antique First Period Dr. Wall Worcester mug in the Parrot Pecking Fruit pattern circa 1765-75. About 3 1/4 inches in height. Charming.
Interestingly, the British Museum ( London ) has a similarly almost identical decorated jug (Museum number1930, 0513.4.CR) and they claim it is from the Caughley Porcelain Factory circa 1775-1799.
According to the Curators Comments:
For original copper plate design see Geoffrey Godden, 'Caughley a...nd Worcester Porcelains 1775-1800', (London 1969) pl. 40
I don't know how much more expert you can get than the Curator at the British Museum but if anyone has an opinion as to the exact origin of this adorable mug I would love to know.
Whether Worcester or Caughley....I like this parrot decorated mug and think you will too. Money back guarantee as always.
