Description

An English porcelain blue and white trio probably by Enoch Wood c.1785, comprising a coffee cup, teabowl and saucer, each piece printed with the Man on the Bridge pattern within a wide formal Chinese border, marked with a crowned lion rampant, 12.8cm. (3)

Cf. Geoffrey Godden, English Blue and White Porcelain, pl.483 for a similar saucer and coffee can. Pieces bearing this mark had been traditionally ascribed to New Hall, however, this theory was overturned after 2006. See Roger Pomfret, Northern Ceramic Society Journal, New Hall Hard Paste Blue Printed Wares of the 18th Century pp.24-27.
