About the Item
A pair of early transferware English porcelain saucers, made by the Worcester Porcelain Factory during the Barr, Flight
Barr period, 1807-1813.
The late 18th and early 19th centuries saw a growing interest in scientific research and rendering. Conchology, or the study of shells, became especially popular at this time. These bat-printed saucers were produced within that context and depict rare and wonderful shells including the conch, cowrie, and bivalve with its pearl. The shell pattern was extremely popular at the Worcester factory; a painted version of this scene by John Baker can be found on extraordinary marble-ground services sold to the upper classes.
The saucers are both marked with the impressed BFB Crown mark, which was in use between 1807-1813.

Six Wedgwood Majolica Argenta
Lincoln
Pattern Dessert Dishes
By Wedgwood
Located in Fort Lauderdale, FL
Six Wedgwood majolica Argenta palette ‘Lincoln' pattern dessert plates with finely molded maroon prunus blossoms and dark taupe pine branches surrounded by a yellow Greek key border. The dishes are decorated in the japonisme style and feature the “Three Friends of Winter” motif, an Asian artistic convention showing the pine, plum, and bamboo together to represent steadfastness, perseverance, and resilience.
The Wedgwood factory introduced muted Argenta glazes to its majolicas in the 1880s to keep up with ever-changing fashions. The Argenta glaze color palette was more subdued than that of traditionally vibrant majolica, and was thus more appealing to the Aesthetic Movement japonisme style that pervaded the market. These Argenta majolica dessert dishes...
