DESCRIPTION

An 18th century English porcelain bowl attributed to a Liverpool factory and decorated in underglaze cobalt blue with the pattern traditionally known as Cannon Ball. The exterior features a Chinese-inspired landscape with stylized buildings, rocks, trees, foliage and waterside elements arranged around the rounded body. A decorative blue border finishes the interior beneath the rim. Raised on a short circular foot, the bowl displays the freely painted decoration and firing characteristics associated with early Liverpool blue and white porcelain.

COLLECTOR’S NOTE

The Cannon Ball pattern is found on 18th century English blue and white porcelain and reflects the strong influence of Chinese landscape decoration on British ceramic production. This example is attributed to Liverpool, although assigning unmarked Liverpool porcelain to a specific factory can be difficult where closely related patterns and decorative styles were used by several manufacturers.
