Description
A Flight, Barr and Barr, Worcester cabinet cup and saucer by Thomas Baxter, circa 1815
With twin handles and a band of white 'jewels' applied below the everted rim, painted with 'The Bard from Gray', the reverse with a floral panel, the oval panels edged with multi-coloured 'jewels', the blue ground gilt with classical scrollwork, stand 13.8cm diam, printed and script marks referring to Coventry Street address (2)
Footnotes:
The Bard from Gray is also recorded on a Swansea plate painted by Thomas Baxter and on other pieces of Flight, Barr and Barr. The source appears to be a print 'Relicks of the Welsh Bards' by Edward Jones, published in 1784 and reissued in 1802 and 1808, after a painting by de Loutherbourg.

Condition
There is some restoration to the handle on the right hand side of the cup when viewing the catalogue illustration. There is also restoration to areas of the rim above and to either side of this handle. It is not possible to determine what damage the restoration conceals. The stand is in good condition.
