Description:
English hybrid hard-paste porcelain teapot stand inscribed on the base "No / .. 241" which is known as the "kiwi fruit" pattern and made by 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. The stand is decorated in pink, rose, green, orange and black with a large center floral spray and scattered floral sprigs around the well, and wavy intersecting dotted and plain bands around the black-edged rim
