Peggy had seen a Derby dessert service in a vitrine in the shop which she liked very much, but by the standards of those days it seemed quite expensive. Since she admired it so much, I finally bought it for her for Christmas in 1954.
D.R.

William 'Quaker' Pegg (1775-1851), was a self-taught botanical draftsman and china-painter. He first worked at the Derby manufactory from 1796 until 1801, at which point he destroyed all his sketchbooks and preparatory drawing, leaving the manufactory in order to lead a more devout life. In 1813 he returned to painting on porcelain, and began to rebuild the body of work he had destroyed, before finally quitting to run a small business in 1820.
