Details
A pair of famille rose and underglaze blue armorial oval dishes
with moulded foliate rims, painted and gilt to the centres with ladies standing holding a sun and moon below banners bearing the motto 'Reparabit cornua Phaebe' -- 10½in. (26.5cms) wide, Jiaqing.
See Colour Plate 39.
The arms are of Scott. The style is copied from an English pattern favoured in a number of factories, including Wedgwood and Leeds. This is the crest of Scott of Raebourn. Although this service could have been made for Sir Walter Scott, the novelist, it is much more likely to have been made for Captain Hugh Scott, of the East India service. (2)
