This is a rare shaped Tureen Both the main body and lid are very well potted with moulded detail. The tureen base has two side handles. The lid has a shaped finial knob to the top and a side cut away for a serving spoon.

The lid displays a finely decorated Maltese cross border, as documented on page 95 of:- A Guide to Mason's Patent Ironstone Patterns, circa 1813-1848, published by The Masons Collectors' club.

This piece is fully marked to both the tureen and its lid with the fully recorded early impressed mark stating MASONS PATENT IRONSTONE CHINA in two lines, pointing to a very early date of Circa 1813 to 1820, with Mason's ironstone only starting in 1813.
