Description: English hybrid hard-paste porcelain beaker-shaped vase with two long, vertical seams, decorated with two large floral and other scattered sprays in pink, rose, blue, green, and red-orange, which is attributed to the New Hall Factory. The New Hall Factory, which operated under several different partnerships over the years at Shelton, first used a hybrid hard-paste porcelain as their standard mix (described on their billhead as "real china"), and then changed that mix to a version of bone china about 1814. The early New Hall hybrid porcelain wares are mainly unmarked, or bear only the painted pattern number often prefixed by 'N' or 'No'; however, other firms also marked their wares in a similar fashion.
