A Chelsea-Derby bell-shaped cup c.1770
A Chelsea-Derby bell-shaped cup c.1770, painted with flowers including a large pink rose, 6.2cm.
This shape was used by Chelsea during the red anchor period and continued at Derby into the later years of the 18th century. The painting on this cup is identical to that seen on other Chelsea-Derby wares of the early 1770s.
