Specialist note

Although unmarked, the groups in the present lot were probably made by the factory that used a large impressed crown mark. See John and Griselda Lewis Pratt Ware (Woodbridge, 1984), p. 82 for a discussion of this as yet unidentified factory, and the pages following for illustrations of its wares.
