A Wedgwood creamware part service c.1810

A Wedgwood creamware part service c.1810, printed in blue in the Waterlily pattern with bold botanical designs. Comprising: two chargers in differing sizes, a tureen and cover, two plates, a mug, an oval stand, and a sauce ladle. (9)

This design derives from prints in the Botanist's Repository and the Botanical Magazine, from 1803-6. The design was probably inspired by the interests of Josiah Wedgwood's eldest son John, who was a founder member of the Royal Horticultural Society.
