A Liverpool Porcelain Large Mug], cylindrical shape with a looped strap handle, painted in Chinese style in "famille rose" enamels with two women watching two young boys playing with a flag and dog near a table and jardinière, with a panelled and lozenged diapered border in red and orange at the rim, probably Philip Christian's factory, circa 1760,{15.5cm high} {See illustration} * A very similar Philip Christian's factory mug is illustrated by Bernard Watney, "Liverpool Porcelain of the Eighteenth Century (1997), fig. 127. The overall form is very similar with a slight flare towards the base. The top trellis is identical to (perhaps even by the same hand) as that on the present piece; a saucer also from the Watney Collection and illustrated in the sale (Watney III, Phillips, 1st November 2000, lot 1034) repeats several mannerisms in the Chinese figures and furniture as on the present piece. A mug of identical size. £500-700
