Mug. Wide, straight-sided cylinder with a 'rope' edging round the rim and base, and an applied angular handle. Decorated with three transfer images, each with text, on the outside; two floral sprays on the inside; and a stylized floral pattern on the outside of the handle.

There are three spur marks on the interior of the base. The underside is flat and glazed, and slightly recessed to form a foot-rim. The images and text are as follows: (i)to the left of the handle: a bust of William IV (signed 'Kennedy'), flanked by a spray of shamrock and a spray of thistles, each with a rose, and inscribed below 'KING WILLIAM the IV.th/Crowned 8.th Sep.r 1831'. (ii)to the right of the handle: a three-quarters, frontal image of Queen Adelaide (signed 'Kennedy'), flanked by similar floral sprays, and inscribed below 'QUEEN ADELAIDE./Crowned 8.th Sep.r 1831.'.

Doulton & Watts at Lambeth produced thousands between 1820 to c.1856. The 1832 Representation of the People Act, commonly known as the 1832 Reform Act, was passed just a few months after the Coronation of King William IV. The Act extended voting rights to some two million of the urban middle classes and abolished rotten boroughs. It was proposed for the Whigs by the Prime Minister, Charles Grey (2nd Earl Grey, 1764-1845). Henry Brougham (Baron Brougham and Vaux, 1778-1868), as Lord Chancellor, led in the House of Lords. Images of all three are found on ‘Reform’ commemorative ware. This is one of three similar pink lustre mugs in the Fitzwilliam Collection. They have the same shape, similar decoration including the inscription ‘REFORM’, and the same mark, which is probably that of Chetham & Robinson, although a ‘C&R’mark was also used by a neighbouring pottery, Chesworth & Robinson. Staffordshire potters were the first, and remained the largest , producers of lustreware, though it was also made in other regions, and is often associated with Sunderland. The engraved images on all three mugs are by ‘Kennedy’, probably James Kennedy of Burslem who made engravings and copper plates for factories as far afield as the Herculaneum Pottery in Liverpool. An engraved print held by the Stoke-on-Trent Museum indicates that the image may be based on a bust of King William IV sculpted by J. Rogers. reference term-109918 adlib-term-109918 b99df2d6-5877-350a-aba8-e750da5d9ef0 William IV reference term-110418 adlib-term-110418 05d711c6-8b77-3dc8-801e-fbc4d8c52049 literal England England country or: Longton reference term-108171 adlib-term-108171 c943fe08-bd72-32ab-823c-e1eeb56717b3 literal England England country Burslem reference term-107733 adlib-term-107733 00160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4 lead-glaze reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Height cm 11.6 Width cm 17 reference media-45386 adlib-media-45386 5adb91ad-e92d-38ad-bc09-b16bd9c8d5fb jpeg aa/aa2/C_55_1997_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583406583 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/mid_C_55_1997_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1742583406583 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/C_55_1997_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583406583 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/preview_C_55_1997_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1742583406583 1 image 0 media image reference media-45387 adlib-media-45387 3df46546-d103-35ff-b59d-cbbf4f50b25e jpeg aa/aa2/C_55_1997_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583368614 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/mid_C_55_1997_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1742583368614 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/C_55_1997_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583368614 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/preview_C_55_1997_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1742583368614 1 image 1 media image reference media-45388 adlib-media-45388 05970f1a-1b08-3557-98cc-e123db82c50f jpeg aa/aa2/C_55_1997_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583366235 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/mid_C_55_1997_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1742583366235 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/C_55_1997_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583366235 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/preview_C_55_1997_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1742583366235 1 image 2 media image reference term-91188 adlib-term-91188 40f320f4-04b6-3303-8129-f9e81e2b4671 mug reference term-134181 adlib-term-134181 30506b08-2416-31be-80b5-975f232d37b7 commemorative mug history note G.H.W.
