Flying Bird Pattern Pair of Small Tureens Davenport England Circa 1815

About the Item

The Davenport flying bird pattern has been much sought after since it was first made in England circa 1813. This lively and colorful pattern features an elegant bird with a long tail flying above a garden with exquisite leaves and beautiful flowers. The pattern showcases the exceptional and enduring charm of chinoiserie decoration. The colors are an unexpected and delightful combination of purple, pink, yellow, orange, turquoise, blue, and green. The tureens have eye-catching deep cobalt blue finials and lion's head handles, which are decorated with lustrous gold. The bottom of the tureens has blue printed Davenport factory marks. This pair of tureens would make a stunning addition to any oval or rectangular table. Underglaze blue marks for Davenport on the tureens and the underplates. Dimensions: 5" tall x 7.25"-7.5"wide x 5.75"-6" deep Condition: Excellent (one of the underplates has light kiln burn). Price: $640 Background of Davenport Porcelain: Davenport Porcelain was an English earthenware and porcelain manufacturer based in Longport, Staffordshire. In 1785, John Davenport began as a potter working with Thomas Wolfe of Stoke, England. In 1794, John acquired a pottery at nearby Longport, England, and began producing earthenware. In 1801, he began making glass, and by 1805, he was making porcelain and ironstone china. By September 1806, the quality of his porcelain wares was such that the Prince of Wales, later to become King George IV, ordered several dinner services. John retired in 1830, and his sons, William and Henry, carried on the firm.
