Comments:Harrison-Hall and Krahl 1994:The arms have been identified as belonging to the Barnwell family and the service to which this cream jug belonged was probably ordered by Michael Barnwell, an employee of the English East India Company who died in 1792 (Howard, 1974, p. 416). The design was probably copied from a bookplate such as the one illustrated, also in the British Museum (BM Franks 1580).
