Provenance: Godden Reference Collection.
Exhibited: (sucrier and cover) 1999, No 720; 2015 (label un-numbered).
Literature: 1989, p83; 2013, pp 181-2. The sucrier and jug illustrated and discussed in a part service, with a matching shape Chamberlain style teapot illustrated in Caughley Society Newsletter 57, February 2014, p13.
These pieces are from a unique Caughley service. Some pieces are of a poor quality body. The Chamberlain style sucrier (and the matching teapot referred to) were possibly modelled for Caughley by Jean Toulouse who was known to be at Caughley c1775-85 and at Chamberlains from 1793. The factory decoration is discussed in 2005, Nos 235-7 and is believed to be known now as Salopian Chain. See lot 89 for another sucrier from the same moulds.
