Collection label for Mrs Charles H. Price II, Kansas City, USA.
Charles Price II was the American ambassador to the UK during the Regan-Thatcher years.
ref. Dawson ‘French Porcelain in the British Museum’ p362 for a saucer with the same central motif in black & gold, marked ‘Dhil’ underglaze, c.1795-1800.
However, the incised ‘N’ is sometimes seen on Nast, Paris, pieces from the same period, and the porcelain compares very well to marked examples – so attribution is uncertain.
