Plate, soup

Unknown
EDKINS, Michael (Edkins arrived in Bristol some time before 1755. In 1755 he married and in 1756 was admitted to the Freedom of Bristol. In 1761 he took on an apprentice. Whilst in Bristol Edkins worked at the Redcliffe pottery, which was run firstly by Thomas and then by richard Frank, and he may have been associated with a possible pottery run by Joseph Flower, an apprentice of the Franks. Evidence of Edkins' work consists largely of painted plates which his grandson William Edkins, a nineteenth century Bristol collector and antique dealer, attributed to him.)

Soup-plate, pale buff coloured earthenware, circular shape with inset base, deep curving sides and spreading rim; covered all over with a blue tinged white tin-glaze, this then painted in blue with to the centre of the well a Chinese-style scene showing a Chinese figure, a pagoda with a fence in front of it, and a collection of rocks with a smaller pagoda, above the scene is the inscription "E / B * E / E / 1771", a lattice-work border to the rim issuing spreading sprays of flowers, a brown edge to the rim.
