The London decorators worked on blank porcelains from a variety of sources, including Welsh, Paris and Coalport. A number of services contain pieces of differing origins, for example the decorators of the Cardiff Castle service used Coalport icepails in combination with Nantgarw, possibly because Nantgarw examples were difficult to obtain. A lack of supply may also have been the reason for the use of a Paris saucer for this lot as Nantgarw are not known to have produced smaller-sized coffee saucers.
