Attributed to Seth Pennington,
Circa 1790
23.5cm wide, 9.5cm high
rim chip restored, glaze speckles
ref. Hillis p437 for the border, p445 for the flowers, where he describes them as -Rather Rare-. The recorded examples appear on jugs and bowls, the jug shape seemingly Seth. However, the combination seen on this bowl appears unique: 4 of the 5 Mixed Boquets Group flowers are seen here around the outside of a bowl rather than a jug, and while he refers to mugs having an adapted version along with the Fish Roe border, this bowl also has that border.
Apparently unparalleled.
