Note the tiny figure '4' in the bottom right. This is not part of the mark but a separate tally mark that is quite common on early Cauldon Place printed wares. Usually it is not placed on top of the mark.

Pattern 806

I admit to being a little mystified by the difference between patterns 637 and 806. The fruit basket and stand (637) and the dessert plate (637) both have gilt centre rings round the print, whereas the shell dish (637) and the comport (806) do not. Equally the fruit basket and stand (637) and the comport (806) both have heavily gilt handles, whereas the shell dish (637) only has a simple gilt outline. Either difference would, I would have thought, require a new pattern number. However, this is an early period and the patterns were not always consistently held to. If anyone reading this has pieces of either pattern number, even if they seem substantially different, I would be very interested and grateful to hear of them.

The comport is 313mm long, 211mm wide and 118mm high.
