An unusual pearlware cup and saucer made at the beginning of the 19th century.

Possibly from the North East of England in the Sunderland area.  

It is unmarked, but is a match for a creamer I had in my position which was identified as possibly made by Sewell. 

Hand thrown and glazed with a slightly blue tinted clear glaze.

Decorated with cobalt blue flowers and pink/purple lustre, the flowers being underglaze cobalt blue, the lustre applied later and then again fired in a muffle kiln.
