Footnotes
This rare dish belongs to a group of Lowestoft porcelains with ribbed borders, including the butter tureen, cover and stand, lot 127 and the rare coffee cup, lot 136 in this sale. The ribbing was perhaps inspired by contemporary Worcester productions. The border design on this dish is also seen on the oval stand for a butter tureen illustrated by Sheenah Smith, Lowestoft Porcelain in Norwich Castle Museum, no 638.
