Description: | Eight-sided earthenware teapot, with ochre rims and edging to the handle. It is transfer-printed in brown with an overall wave design, on each side, a scallop-shaped reserve containing a ribbon inscribed 'TRAFALGAR' placed across the staff of a British ensign, flying above a gun, laurel branch and inverted foreign flags. The trophies are flanked by a pyramid and crocodile representing the Battle of the Nile, and a fortress representing the Battle of Copenhagen. Each shell is placed between a pair of tritons blowing on seashells, their tails entwined. The teapot has a Greek key pattern border with a thistle, rose, anchor, palm and laurel branches. A thistle is printed on the spout. A band of laurel is printed on the handle. | Publisher: | "http://collections.rmg.co.uk/" | Source: | Royal Museums Greenwich | Identifier: | http://collections.rmg.co.uk/collections... | Go to resource |
