Mason’s  - Patent Ironstone China – Beaker with Dragon Handle – Very Good 

LADYBIRD BOOKS & COLLECTIBLES SINCE 2004

This very decorative Beaker with Dragon Handle bears the Mason’s Backstamp with Patent Ironstone China.  With a pattern number B8878 C.  In 1872 the orange script numbers were used, I cannot find this number in the information I viewed. The Beaker feels like porcelain. 

In traditional Imari colours of cobalt blue, red and gold.  Lovely cobalt blue dragon handle edged in gold.  There is some pitting and some wear to the gold and partly hand painted.

I have never come across an item like this in Mason’s and there is a strange fluting appearance to the body of the Beaker.

It’s in Very Good Condition and is a lovely Beaker with Dragon Handle, small wear to base.

Stands proud at approx. 9.5 cm in height.   Measurement is approximate only.
