See Simon Spero and John Sandon, Worcester Porcelain 1751-1790, the Zorensky Collection, Woodbridge, 1996, cat. no. 364 for an oval basket in this pattern. Known as the 'Earl Manvers' pattern, it takes its name from Charles Meadows, 3rd Duke of Kingston who became Earl Manvers in 1806 and who is reputed to have commissioned the original service.
