TJR Trading has dated this Chinese Export Porcelain Mug to the 18th Century.
The mug has a large central reserve depicting four figures.
In between the reserves is gilded and hash patterns. The mug has a simple handle.
There is a chip to the inside rim of the mug measuring 5mm wide. There looks to be a similar chip on the rim but it is not a chip, just a lack of pigment. There is a hairline crack running down the side of the mug from the rim, which forks into two further hairline cracks. From the crack there are some losses by the head of one of the figures. It looks as though the white on the feet and on the paper on the table in the reserve may have been overpainted. There is wear to some of the enamel, and significant wear to the gilding.
