A rare Nantgarw cabinet cup and stand

Circa 1818-20.
Of U shape with twin gryphon handles resting on the everted rim, picked out in matt green and black enamel highlighted in gold, painted by Thomas Pardoe with birds perched upon leafy branches, a gilded formal border below the interior rim, stand 11.2cm diam (2)

Footnotes

Pardoe's bird painting on this miniature scale is extremely unusual but a single-handled cabinet cup of the same form with very similar painting is illustrated by W D John, Nantgarw Porcelain, Illustration 56B. Another of the same form was sold in these rooms on 10 December 2008, lot 318
