Chinese Export Porcelain Bacchus Mug After Derby Porcelain
About the Item
Chinese export porcelain bacchus mug after Derby Porcelain,
circa 1785.
The Chinese Export porcelain mug is modeled after a Derby Porcelain original as the head of Bacchus, the face naturalistically & delicately enameled. The eyebrows, beard and hair picked out with lightly etched brown lines. Around his head is a garland of vine leaves enameled in green, the veins of the leaves well delineated in grey, the bunches of grapes in a rich purple. The "C" shaped handle is decorated with stylized vine leaves, the sides of the thick handle with gold lappets.
Dimensions: 4 inches high
Reference
This type of mug was copied directly from a Derby original that dates to around 1780-1785 and was created by William Duesbury II (1763-97) when the company was known as William Duesbury & Co.
For a similar mug, see Sargent: The Copeland Collection: Chinese & Japanese Ceramic Figures, Peabody Essex Museum, 1991, p 230.
See also Howard; The Choice of the Private Trader, page 195, plate 226, and we quote "Modeled accurately after a Derby original in the form of a bearded face …. The Derby originals usually bear a puce mark of c. 1785, and this popular pattern which, with its sailor-like cap, has been called "Sailor's Head", "Rodney" or "Neptune", was made at Chelsea, Derby and other factories - examples of these now being more numerous than the Chinese copies." For a Ralph Wood version of this type, see R.K. Price Ralph Wood Figures, plate XXXVIII no 68.
Also see Espirito Santo Collection, Lloyd Hyde/ Silva/ Malta 1956, plate XXXV, p. 94.
