Pair Neoclassical Vases Made Circa 1800 in England by Davenport

This set of a dozen English creamware dinner dishes made by Davenport have exquisite yellow borders decorated with a black neoclassical design. Davenport was known for its dishes with decorative painted borders in many colors. Yellow was the rarest of the colors as it would burn in the kiln if not expertly controlled. The Davenport factory opened in the 1790s; by 1800, Davenport had become one of the leading English makers of creamware pottery painted with enamels. Davenport made exceptional designs in the rococo, chinoiserie, and neoclassical styles. Patterns like these date from the last quarter of the 18th century into the first quarter of the nineteenth century.
