Description

A Longton Hall or West Pans blue and white saucer, c.1760-65, painted with a Chinese landscape depicting a small hut beneath windswept trees, 12.4cm.

Cf. Steven Goss, British Blue and White Porcelain Saucers 1745-95, p.40, no.58 for a Longton Hall example of this pattern. This saucer has a glassy glaze and the slightly misshapen body might indicate that it is an early product of West Pans rather than a later example at Longton Hall.
