Description: | Coffee Cup, Worcester, c.1765
Decorated with the "Scarlet Japan" pattern. Robert Drane paired this with a Chinese saucer from the Qianlong period, dated c.1750 (2004.274), which Worcester used as a prototype. Curiously, Worcester have painted their blue onto the glaze rather than under the glaze as in the Chinese example.
