TWO SWANSEA (LONDON-DECORATED) PLATES FROM THE MARQUESS OF EXETER SERVICE
CIRCA 1814-26
Each painted with a central spray of a purple rose, within a gilt interlocking strapwork cartouche, one with hairline crack and both with slight rubbing/wear
8¼ in. (21 cm.) diameter (2)

The 2nd Marquess of Exeter (d. 1867), Burghley House, Stamford.
Sir Leslie Joseph (collection labels no. 56 and 1030).

專家說明

As these do not appear in the sale of the Sir Leslie Joseph Collection (Sotheby's, 14th-16th May 1992) it is reasonable to presume they were a gift to Lord Forte from Sir Leslie during his tenure as Vice-Chairman of the Trusthouse Forte Group.

Forty-five pieces of the same service, removed from Burghley House, were sold at Christie's London on 13th July 1959, lot 88; forty-one of those are now on display at the National Museum of Wales.
