Note 211 — Chapter XX · ENGLISH PORCELAIN INTRODUCTION—THE SOFT-PASTE PORCELAIN OF CHELSEA AND BOW

Reading edition

There is an interesting series of these very early pieces in the British Museum. A white ware salt-cellar, with crayfish in relief, has the triangle mark. A jug, in the form of a grotesque Chinaman, is a good specimen of the early paste. We notice the same waxy look in the paste that we find in the Saint-Cloud ware. The surface, however, is generally grayer.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
