|Provenance:Thomas G. Burn, Rous Lench Court, Christie's sale 29 May 1990, lot 6Syd Levethan, Longridge Collection, Christie's sale 25 May 2011, lot 151Literature:Illustrated by Lipski and Archer, Dated English Delftware (1984), p299, fig.1235A. Also illustrated by Leslie B. Grigsby, the Longridge Collection of English Slipware and Delftware (2000), fig.D182This is one of a pair of the same unusual straight-sided form bearing identical initials and dates. The companion bowl was in the Louis Lipski Collection and is illustrated by Lipski & Archer, fig.1235. The present lot had been displayed in the Cromwell bedroom at Rous Lench Court and unfortunately was broken by a bird that entered through the fireplace. Henry Sandon arranged its repair.Many references to 'porringers' in accounts of delftware supplied in 1699 by the Pickleherring pottery include descriptions of 'Spanish porringers' and 'Blood porringers', suggesting some at least were intended for bloodletting. It is likely these objects had a number of different domestic uses.
