EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a delicate tea bowl from the late 18th century. Crafted with exquisite porcelain, this piece is a testament to the skill and artistry of English ceramic manufacturers during the Georgian era. The bowl measures 5.1x8.7 cm and is currently housed in The Geffrye Museum of the Home in London, UK. The tea bowl features an enchanting design known as the Temple pattern, which depicts a Chinese pagoda surrounded by lush trees on a pristine white background. This intricate scene is transfer-printed in underglaze blue and adorned with gilded decorations, adding an air of elegance to its appearance. Manufactured by Caughley (or Salopian Works) around 1780, this tea bowl reflects the influence of non-English cultural traditions on English ceramics at that time. Its navy blue color scheme and Chinese-inspired motif make it a remarkable example of cross-cultural artistic exchange. As we admire this stunning piece, we are transported back to an era when fine china was cherished for both its beauty and functionality. It serves as a reminder of how objects like these were once integral parts of daily life, reflecting not only individual tastes but also broader societal values. Through this print captured by Bridgeman Images, we can appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating such exquisite drinking vessels like this tea bowl - treasures that continue to captivate us centuries later.
