Maker: Unknown Description: A pearlware commemorative jug and matching beaker printed underglaze in blue with the Rocket pattern. Hand painted in ochre is the name "John Radcliffe" accompanied with the date "1799". The exterior border design made up of geometric shapes and symbols and the interior border consisting of a variation of the butterfly design, distinguish this Rocket pattern from the more traditional one with its bell pattern border. This is an extremely rare example of a pair of commemorative items that would have been presented to John Radcliffe at the same time. The fact that they have both survived for well over two hundred years is extraordinary. The beaker is 3.5 inches high. |
