moreA large Georgian Period teapot in the "Nankin" pattern (more commonly known today as "Blue Willow") in the chinoiserie taste by Caughley, one of the earliest English porcelain manufacturers. This pattern was based on the Chinese export porcelain from Nanking, which was enormously popular with the upper middle class and aristocracy at the time. Pieces such as these were intended to be domestic goods which could compete in both style and quality with foreign imports. This early example exhibits the slightly greyish porcelain body and "orange peel" glaze which the British buying public was familiar with on account of its similarity to Chinese porcelain. English, c. 1775-1785.
Most Caughley teapots of this period are not much bigger than an orange; the larger size of this example may indicate that this was originally intended for use as a punch pot. However, it is hard to say for sure as this was also the period when teapots were starting to made in larger sizes as the price of tea began dropping in England during the late 18th century (incidentally, this was because of the famous Boston Tea Party). less

Note a firing crack on the interior rim and a small loss on the tip of the spout which is glazed over; these form part of the original production and are therefore not considered defects, but are noted for accuracy. There is some wear to the gilding as expected from early pieces, but the gilding is largely intact. less
