References

ref. William Greatbatch p94 for the pair in the Wedgwood Museum. A Wedgwood invoice for 1764 lists block moulds for ‘Cornu Copias’ thought to be like this model, supplied to Wedgwood by Greatbatch. A pair in the Wedgwood Museum have the same moulding, and are ‘possibly Wedgwood’, although similar shards were excavated on the Greatbatch kiln site.
