About the Item

Reference : The Dictionary of Worcester Porcelain Volume One,1751-1851 (John Sandon, 1993) page 113 Sandon concludes that pieces of this nature were either caudle or chocolate cups. Both were hot, sweetened drinks with the former being more of a restorative tonic for invalids rather than a luxurious treat. In its original, ethnic South American form, drinking chocolate was bitter and enhanced with chilli. It has long been mooted that anything with a contoured rim was not to be put to the mouth for fear of spillage, and that we should think about using a spoon. However, both Sevres and Meissen - from whom Worcester took a great deal of inspiration - produced ecuelles with both contoured and flat rims.
