Comments:Text from Read and Tonnochy 1928, ‘Catalogue of Silver Plate’ (Franks Bequest): Chinese mugs of this type were copied from the productions in fine stoneware of English factories at Fulham, and possibly elsewhere. A curious misunderstanding of the prototype is seen in the little strip of porcelain under the base of the handle, a naïve copy of the rolled-up strip that ends the handle in the European example.
