Graham Slater Collection
Fragments similar to the present lot were found in the Museum of London's excavations at Mortlake within a context datable to 1775-1800, see Sloane, Hoad, Cloake, Pearce and Stephenson, Early Modern Industry and Settlement (2003). A very similar example from the S J McManus Collection that was inscribed in diamond point on the reverse 'J Butler 1785' supports this date range. It was sold by Bonhams on 12 November 2014, lot 16 and is illustrated by Lipski and Archer, Dated English Delftware (1984), p.392, fig.1682.
