Description:
English hybrid hard-paste porcelain waste bowl made by New Hall and decorated in blue, pink, red, and green with a single line around the interior rim and a red flower in the well; and a chinoiserie-like abstract garden with tall blue and pink hollow rocks, running fence, and scrolling floral sprays around the exterior sides.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. This bowl was identified as New Hall and dated by English porcelain expert Dr. David Redstone during a visit by members of the English Ceramic Circle, May 13, 2010.
