Derby Porcelain Pattern 18 Dish with Long Tailed 7 for
William Billingsley.
A Derby porcelain dessert dish, decorated in pattern 18 and dating
to c1785. It is marked to the reverse with the usual Derby puce mark, but the pattern number is absent. There
is a long-tailed 7 in red in the footrim, the mark of William Billingsley. There is a fairly long, stable crack beginning
at the edge which when viewed from the reverse partly follows the footrim. It measures about 4 inches in length but
has been stabilised. This makes the dish a very cheap example of Billingsley decorated Derby with his signature mark.
