Comments:Harrison-Hall and Krahl 1994:The coat of arms belongs to Lieutenant Colonel John Chadwick (1720-1800) of Healey Hall in Lancashire. Several pieces of this dinner service as well as a closely related service, made for another member of the same family, with a slightly different coat of arms, have been preserved, all with the same inscription on the reverse (Howard, 1974, p. 741). Such inscriptions were not common on Chinese export porcelain and the significance of the date here recorded is not known.
