Full description

Junket or salad dish, soft paste porcelain, lobed form, Caughley, Shropshire 1780-85; six moulded scallop shells around the rim and well and, at the centre of the internal base, a moulding with six evenly-spaced lobes, underglaze blue transfer prints of alternating floral sprigs and fruit, with a central print of the 'Pine Cone' pattern, to the exterior surface are a series of transfer prints of salad vegetables, fruits and insects. Marked on the underside in underglaze blue with a filled crescent with serif. This bowl is of the same overall shape as NT537382, but has a much simpler moulding to the interior. Dishes of this form are traditionally described as 'junket dishes' (Sandon, 1996, The Dictionary of Worcester Porcelain. Volume I, 1751-1851, p. 212), but they may have been used for salad. There are many comparisons to be made between the products of the Worcester and Caughley factories. Caughley was established in Shropshire the mid 1770s by Thomas Turner (1747-1809) who is believed to have been trained at Worcester and would have had a close working knowledge of their shapes, patterns and markets. The 'Pine Cone' design on this dish, for example, was also used at Worcester. A near identical dish is in the collection of the V&A, marked for Worcester (ref. 3273-1901). Godden has suggested that the contemporary name for this pattern might have originally been 'Pomegranate', as there are early orders for objects described as such (Godden, 2004, Godden's Guide to English Blue and White Porcelain, p. 432).
