Heraldry Crests and Coats of Arms / Re: Armorial cup and saucer

Hi Chas,

Thanks for your response, interesting that the coronet is that of a Marquis, and yes I've heard of how inaccurate the Western commissions decorated in China can be! Fingers crossed this one wasn't too far off the mark.

Thanks again,

John

Heraldry Crests and Coats of Arms / Armorial cup and saucer
« on: Thursday 31 July 25 08:28 BST (UK)  »
Hi guys, I recently acquired this Chinese export cup and saucer in the UK which I believe is mid to late 18th c that has a dual coat of arms. I think this would have been commissioned to celebrate an event involving two families like a wedding. I was wondering if anyone would be able to identify the two families or give me some points on how I would go about identifying them for myself as I haven't had any luck so far. Thanks, John
