Condition Report: Overall Condition: cup with 1 hairline. Saucer star hairline and small chip to rim. Size 118x18mm and 78x40mm dxh

Lovely 18th century cup and sacuer with an unusual combination of encre de chine and famille rose.

Painted with ‘The Valentine Pattern’. Two doves perched on a quiver of arrows in front of an ‘alter of love’ and a bread fruit plant.
Although there are variations of the pattern they are all based on an armorial dinner service ordered in 1743 by Lord Anson based on a drawing by Sir Piercy Brett who accompanied him on a journey around the world 1740-1744. The design became popular during the 18th century.
See R.Kerr and L E Mengoni Chinese Export Ceramics 2011 p.65 fig84
