David Howard (Chinese Armorial Porcelain vol 2) illustrates this crest, and suggests that this crest is possibly for the Chalmers family.

This is part of a small set of armorial wares from this service which we are offering for sale.

Date: c1790

Condition: Good condition with no damage or restoration.  The gilding around the rim is almost entirely rubbed away.
