Davenport
Country: England | Date Range: |
Description: Longport, Staffordshire; 1793-1887 (Godden 1964:189; Godden 1968:60). Four printed marks relating to this firm were recovered. Three of these marks which comprise simply of the company name ?Davenport?, were recorded on a Willow pattern plate, a blue Muleteer pattern saucer and a blue Waverley pattern saucer, (Figures 3.7, 3.14 & 3.17). The remaining printed mark, which occurred on a green hand-painted vitreous china cup (pattern 315) includes ?Davenport of Longport Staffordshire? set beneath a crown (not illustrated). This was a standard Davenport mark utilised between 1870-87 (Godden 1964:191; Godden 1968:60). | Source: |
