Lovely Large Coalport Porcelain Mug Rose Centred Spray / Pine Cone Pattern C.1840

19th century
For Sale by The Fancy Fox
Description

A very fine antique Coalport bone china porcelain mug printed with the "Pine Cone" pattern to one side and the "Rose Centred Spray" on the other. A detailed floral band runs down the handle and further smaller fruit and flowers sprigs are dotted among the main arrangements. Marked with an open crescent to the base (distinct from the hatched crescent found on earlier Worcester printed wares), c.1840.

It measures 11.8cm (4 5/8") high and 8.7cm (3 3/8") rim to rim.

In excellent condition with no damage, repair or restoration and minimal handling wear. The patterns are very finely and crisply printed. There is a small firing line within the rim and another glaze fault inside the base.

Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 19TH CENTURY:
Crisp underglaze blue transfer: copper-plate printing on a white bone china body.
Underglaze blue open crescent mark to the underside: factory marking used by Coalport.
Ingrained darkening across the unglazed foot ring: honest handling over a long life.
Cobalt flecks and minor glaze faults: early kiln firing before clean modern methods.

This is an independent date and photo anotation report compiled by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This Victorian porcelain mug is made by Coalport in the nineteenth century, finished with a blue and white glaze. The cylindrical vessel stands on a plain base, featuring a curved loop handle on the left side and a detailed floral band running down it, alongside a rose-centred floral spray and botanical foliage printed against a cream background. The mug measures 11.8cm high and 8.7cm rim to rim. Ideal for everyday use or display, this piece finds a natural home on a sideboard top in an English country house interior, bringing traditional style to a dining table or kitchen display. A buyer can place it among other ceramics or use it as a decorative accent within a traditional room setting.

FAQs

Coalport porcelain refers to ceramic wares produced in Shropshire, England, renowned from the late eighteenth century onward for high-quality soft-paste and hard-paste porcelain decorated with intricate underglaze prints and painted designs.

Mugs from this period were typically wheel-thrown or slip-cast using fine clay mixtures, decorated with copper-plate transfer prints using cobalt oxide pigment, and fired at high temperatures to set the glaze.

Authentic pieces generally feature a smooth, translucent porcelain body, precise cobalt transfer application, light age-appropriate glaze crazing, and occasionally impressed or painted factory marks on the base.

Display the piece on open kitchen shelving, place it on a sideboard alongside complementary ceramics, or repurpose it as a desktop vessel for stationary in a study.

Clean gently by hand using warm water and a mild detergent with a non-abrasive sponge, avoiding dishwashers and abrupt temperature changes to prevent cracking or glaze damage.
