Dish 1750-75 British Creamware, so-called for its cream-colored body, is a refined earthenware with a lead-based glaze that was developed in Staffordshire, England around 1750. Due to its light color and glossy glaze, it was ideal for dinnerware. Economically affordable to produce, creamware was imported to America in large quantities. Although much creamware was used in America, it is rare to find pieces associated with a particular family. This dinner service (36.22.1 -.38) bears the initials SBW” for Samuel Blachley Webb. The set was imported from England in 1774 by Webb, who was an aide-de-camp and military secretary to General George Washington.. Dish 3322

Two lidded butter dishes with saucers. Delft factories produced many small butter dishes, mostly in pairs. They vary in painted decorations, knobs and saucers.

Snuffbox 1757-58 J.F.()B. In eighteenth-century Europe, Paris led the production of high-quality luxury goods. Parisian goldsmiths made a wide range of small, personal articles such as snuffboxes; étuis to hold sealing wax, tweezers, or utensils for sewing; souvenirs, which contained thin ivory tablets for note taking; and shuttles for knotting lace. Gold snuffboxes and boxes decorated with portrait miniatures were prized and frequently given as royal gifts, often to ambassadors or members of the court in lieu of cash payments for their services. Coveted and admired, these boxes were produced from a variety of materials. The best were skillfully made of gold and embellished with diamonds, enameled decoration, lacquer, and other luxurious materials. By the middle of the century, the taking of snuff had become an entrenched social ritual, and the snuffbox, too, had become an important social prop. Snuffboxes were considered highly fashionable accessories, with some merchants advertising

Plate with marine subject ca. 1789-97 Dihl et Guérhard The decoration and unusual painting composition found on this plate, which probably dates to around 1797, attest to the high quality and experimental work of the Dihl et Guérhard manufactory. Founded in 1781 by the modeler Christophe Dihl and the entrepreneur Antoine Guérhard and based in Paris, the factory became the most important private porcelain firm during the French Revolution. Reaching a height during the turbulent period of 1789 to 1798, the firm capitalized upon the abolition of Sèvress royal monopoly on porcelain in order to experiment with a variety of vessel shapes, ground colors, decorative effects, and subject matter. Although eighteenth-century natural history cabinets often featured shells and corals, artists rarely depicted specimens in a natural setting, particularly one as unsettling as the misty shoreline and cliffs found in this group of three plates (2018.143.1-.3).. Plate with marine subject. French, Paris.

Plate ca. 1791 Sèvres Manufactory French Porcelain decorated with a black ground in imitation of Asian lacquer was produced at Sèvres for about a fifteen-year period beginning in 1790. Furniture decorated with imported black lacquer panels saw a resurgence of popularity in the last two decades of the eighteenth century, and the Sèvres factory's efforts to simulate black lacquer on porcelain were probably stimulated by this renewed general interest in lacquer decoration. Black-ground Sèvres porcelain was decorated with chinoiserie scenes executed in gold, which was often applied in subtle tones of yellow, green, and red. Small decorative highlights were often executed in platinum, and the ability to apply platinumfirst mastered by the factory in 1790may have been an impetus to produce these lacquer-inspired pieces.[Jeffrey H.
