Description

We have for sale a rather rare c1817 Swansea duck egg porcelain trio derived from the Ellis Jenkins collection.

This rather lovely porcelain trio consisting of a teacup coffee cup and saucer is decorated in orange and gilt with a dappled mint green on a white ground with a pattern depicting an Imari inspired flowers. The pattern is an unrecorded Swansea pattern and this trio is reputed to be the only remaining undamaged piece from the service.

The saucer is 5.75 inches (14.6cm) in diameter, the coffee can is approximately 3 inches high and all three pieces making up the trio are in a good to very condition with no chips, cracks or repairs, although there is a little bit of wear the the decoration, particularly on the saucer (see images 1, 2 and 3)
