This punchbowl was probably made in one of the many Tyneside potteries working in the 18th and 19th centuries. The outside is transfer printed with a blue and white design showing an Oriental landscape, imitating patterns on imported porcelain. The inside of the bowl is hand painted with a dedication and verse, which is surrounded with freemasonry symbols. This bowl was presented to John Ward, Mason, at Monkseaton Brewery, near Whitley Bay, on 1st May 1792.
