Illustrated in Ceramics of Vauxhall, ECC 2007, p.68, no.96. This important beaker is among the very earliest pieces of Vauxhall porcelain and is similar to the vase and cover exhibited by Simon Spero, Exhibition 2001, no 40, illustrated by him in Vauxhall Porcelain - A Tentative Chronology, ECC Trans, Vol.18, Pt.2, p.361. Both exhibit a bright blue colour, lack of plasticity in the paste and a distinctive pooling of the glaze.
