Figure 24 Partial coVee service, New Chelsea Porcelain Co., Longton, StaVordshire, England, ca. 1923. Whiteware. H. of coVee pot: 5 3/4". Mark: New Chelsea. The design of these pieces found in the attic at Thorley’s shop was influenced by the discovery in 1923 of the tomb of the Eighteenth Dynasty pharaoh Tutankhamun (r. 1333–1323 b.c.), which had launched an international revival of Egyptian motifs. |
