The jug with a 'clip' handle, printed in puce with the 'Farmers Arms', the reverse with the 'Woman churning butter', smaller prints of farm animals on the neck and below the handle, a gilded 'NS' monogram below the spout, 19.7cm high (cracked and chipped), the shaped dish painted with sprigs of fruit within a border of laurel garlands pendant from a salmon and gold band, 31cm wide (some wear) (2)

Footnotes

The jug exhibited: New Hall Bicentenary Exhibition, No 83. The 'Woman churning butter' print also appears in Liverpool tiles by Sadler and Green. See Anthony Ray, Liverpool Printed Tiles (1994), B6-14. The print is reversed on this jug. The dish is of the same form as the celebrated dessert service painted by Fidelle Duvivier, illustrated by Geoffrey Godden, New Hall Porcelains (2004), pls.195-202. Another dish and a plate from the same service as this lot are shown at pls.203 and 204. The fruit sprigs relate to Duvivier's work on Seaux and Derby porcelain and are likely to have been painted by him
