Interestingly, the two halves of the plaster of Paris mould used to make this tub have been placed together incorrectly, resulting in the moulded flowers growing downwards on one side and upwards on the other. A similar butter tub and stand from The Geoffrey Godden Collection was sold by Bonhams on 30 June 2010, lot 128. Another is illustrated by Christopher Spencer, Early Lowestoft (1981), p.126, fig.173.
