Cabinet Cup and Saucer- 'Snipe Shooting' and 'Worm Fishing', Worcester porcelain, Chamberlain's Factory, c. 1813–16 In European porcelain, a cabinet cup is an unusually richly decorated cup, normally with a saucer, that did not form part of a tea service but was sold singly (or in a pair) to give as a present or to collectors.
Cup and saucer, 1774, from the Champion period. The Latin inscription reads: "R. and J. Champion gave this as a token of friendship to J. Burke the best of British wives, on the third day of November, 1774". [2] This was Jane, Mrs Edmund Burke; Champion was a friend, who helped Burke's election that year as a Bristol MP.
The original teacup design did not have a handle or a saucer. At some point a ring-shaped cupholder appeared to protect the fingers and eventually evolved into a saucer. [3] The cups in 17th century were tiny, with the width about 2¼ inches across at the top,1¼ at the bottom, and the depth of 1½ inches. The saucers measured 4½ inches across.
The other types include Swatow ware (c. 1575–1625), made for South-East Asian and Japanese markets, and Tianqi porcelain, made mainly for the Japanese market in the 17th century. Chinese celadons were exported to most of Eurasia , but not Europe, between roughly the Tang and the early Ming dynasties.
Decorative vases and figurines (or magots) for the chimneypiece [5] were produced, and useful wares included delicately modelled rococo tea-pots and cream jugs, coffee-sets or cabarets complete with their trays, covered tureens, bourdaloues, plates and cups, [6] down to porcelain flowers to incorporate in chandeliers and knife-handles.
Although small ordinary pieces can still be relatively cheap (from £100 up), the highest prices are fetched by the few pieces with paintings of local scenes around the town. A flask with a ship-building scene on Lowestoft beach fetched £24,000 in 2010, and in 2011 another piece with local scenes made the record price at £30,000.
