Description A very rate octagonal earthenware cup and round saucer with an all over "Blue Chintz" transfer pattern no 1185 with a black trim. Manufactured by A.G Richardson under the trademark Crown Ducal in the early 1920's. Pattern was discontinued in 1926. Size (approx) Cup: Diameter: 3.75" (9.5 cm), Height: 2.125" (5.4 cm) Saucer: 5.75" (14.6 cm) Condition Excellent No discoloration and surprisingly for their age there is virtually no crazing.
