Lot Essay

For identically molded teapots see, The Fitzwilliam Museum, Collection entry no. C.5 & A-1951, for a detailed analysis on the movement of this block mold and an attribution to probably Josiah Wedgwood; and Robin Reilly, Wedgwood, Vol. I, London, 1939, p. 159, fig. 111 for the Brooklyn Museum example, here listed as unmarked, Wedgwood, circa 1763. Waster fragments excavated at the Greatbatch site correspond directly to the tea-canister in the present lot. For a similar example lacking its cover, see Jonathan Horne, I Collection of Early English Pottery, Part VIII, fig. 216.
