Dinner Plate c1800
This is the original version of William Adam's famous design, which the Adams factory later reproduced in the 20th Century. Usually known as Chinese Bird, it is sometimes called Bird in Basket.
This plate has impeccable provenance and came from the Dean & Mary Rockwell Collection, which was dispersed by sale at Phillips, London a few years ago. Bears on the back the Rockwell Collection acquisition sticker with number 928, plus some handwritten notes by Dean, on a label, about the history of the design.
Small impressed ADAMS backstamp, which was in use from 1789 to 1809.
An apparent stress crack in manufacture has caused a tight hairline for about 3.25 ins round the top of the bowl, which is barely visible on the face. The rim is rubbed in places. The face is bright and clean, with only a few knife marks and a little light crazing to the glaze in places. Quite frankly this plate is about as good as they come and on display looks perfect. Original Chinese Bird is so hard to find these days.

The other has light crazing and the transfer is a little smudged to the base. All sounds far worse than it is! Base measures 5.75 ins across.

Table Lamp c1930s
This is a most unusual piece. It was made specifically as a lamp, but using the mould for the canister. Often lamps are found to be converted vases or ginger jars. At some time a more modern fixing has replaced the original one which has resulted in some damage to the neck. This however is fairly minor because once a shade is in place it will be hidden. Blue printed backstamp: "Wm Adams England. Rd No. 623294 This pattern was introduced by William Adams in 1780 being a copy of a Chinese pattern and one of the first of its style produced in English Pottery"
Although fitted with a lamp holder and flex, this item is sold for decorative use only, and must be checked by a competent electrician before being used as a lamp.
Dimensions: 20 cm high to top of fixing / 8 ins high to top of fixing
