“Messrs. Daniell have so many good things from Coalport Works that it would be difficult to present even a brief mention of them all. There is one beautiful pair of vases in imitation Cashmere ware which Sir R. Wallace has already purchased, and the same gentleman has also secured a number of plates delightfully painted by Faugeron with exotic leaves. Two portrait vases of the Emperor and Empress of Austria are of old Sèvres shape, the bodies being of turquoise and gold, and the paintings by Palmere, almost miniatures in their fine detail. Two gros bleu vases, with raised and chased gold ornamentation and panels, choicely painted with birds by Randall, are as elegant as a pair of jardinières, with a cobalt ground and gold ferns and grasses in relief, butterflies touched up in bright enamel, toning the otherwise too great richness of the dark gold and blue. These are only a few of the attractions of one of the finest, though not largest, cases in the section. Messrs. Pellatt exhibit some Coalport ware, which is in every respect worthy of the high repute of that renowned manufactory.”
