A Chinese porcelain mug relating to the Worcester factory 18th century

A Chinese porcelain mug relating to the Worcester factory 18th century, painted with the Valentine pattern in the famille rose palette, 10.2cm. Although Worcester copied this pattern from Chinese export porcelain, it was originally an English design by Piercy Brett used on a service for Commodore George Anson in 1743. Brett was a lieutenant aboard The Centurion with Anson, and his drawings provided a narrative of their circumnavigation.
