The bird panels are directly based on George Davis’s earlier ‘Exotic Birds’ images, on Caughley and Worcester porcelain. Davis worked for Chamberlain while he was just a decorating studio for the Worcester factory, and when Chamberlain established his own studio, he was the principal painter. This style is often attributed to him at this later date, but there were other artists at Chamberlains just as capable.
