The Mug stands on a plain circular foot. The campana shaped main body is beautifully chased with foliage and trailing flower heads on a matted ground. The interior is finely gilded and the handle is decorated with leaf capping. This is a most unusual design coming from these workshops. Pieces by the Matthew Boulton workshop are very desirable.
