Georgian Derby Coffee Can Hand Painted & fully marked, ca. 1810

About the Item

This is a beautiful porcelain Coffee Can by the Derby factory, made during the late Georgian period of the early years of the 19th Century The cylindrical can tapers slightly to the base and has a wishbone handle. The decoration is exquisite, all hand enamelled, with a continuous inter- weaving pattern of coloured floral sprigs and gilded leaves, with a gilded ring to the upper rim and above the lower base rim, with further hand gilded (gold) enamelling to the outer handle. The can is fully marked to the base with the red crown and crossed battons mark, with a "28" in red by the rim, which will be the painter or gilder's number. We date this piece to the late Georgian period, circa 1810.

  • Derby Orphaned Coffee Can, White, Landscape by Zachariah Boreman, ca 1790
    By Derby
    Located in London, GB
    This is a very rare and stunning little orphaned coffeecup made by Derby in about 1790. The cup has a white ground, simple gilt rims and a stunning named mountain landscape painted by Zachariah Boreman. The Derby factory, later reshaped into Royal Crown Derby, is currently the oldest British porcelain factory still in production. Derby was one of the most prominent potteries right from the start of English porcelain production in the mid 1700s to today. Their items are of exceptionally high quality and many of the designs have become iconic, particularly the Imari designs; many of these are still being made today. Derby made many exciting designs in the Regency era, and this cup, which would have belonged to a large tea service, is a beautiful example. The marking at the underside indicates that the cup was produced some time between 1782 and 1800, however the style is from the mid-1790s. Zachariah Boreman was one of the most celebrated painters at Derby. He arrived at Derby around 1774 after working at Chelsea, and remained until 1794, when he left in frustration with Michale Kean, the owner. Even though Boreman became one of the prime landscape painters at Derby, Kean would not pay him more and this caused Boreman to go back to London and work for the Simms decorating studio. Boreman was most probably influenced by Paul Sandby, the chief drawing...
