It is likely that the present mug was made to commemorate the Act of Union between England and Scotland in 1707.

For a cylindrical mug also decorated with this a star-and-lattice pattern and inscribed 'union', see Frank Britton, English Delftware in the Bristol Collection, London, 1982, p. 86-87, no. 6.1.
