ref. Marshal ‘Coloured Worcester Porcelain’ pl 22 #421 for the scarce form; neither the Zorensky or Sandon’s ‘Dictionary of Worcester’ show an example of this elegant form, making it rare indeed. See Sandon p 275 for Red Line Group discussion; Zorensky p.358 & #461 for very similar decoration, also ’The Bowles Collection’ #145 for an identical example.
