A rare Lowestoft blue and white tea or chocolate cup c.1765-70, painted with a low hut beside a long fence, the reverse with a hut on a small island, the interior with a panelled trellis rim, with an unusual moulded handle, 4.7cm high. Provenance: a private collection in East Anglia. The larger size of this cup might indicate that it was a breakfast cup. Handled cups of this shape were rarely made at Lowestoft.
