A Sunderland Lustreware earthenware Bowl by Dixon, Phillips & Co. SOLD
The Bowl is decorated with mostly maritime and patriotic transfers for The Sailor's Farewell, The Sailor's Return, The Flag That's Braved 1000 Years the Battle and the Breeze (which also notes the maker's name) and the Sunderland Bridge etc. Pink glaze is used to frame the transfers and lift the bowl with its colour.
Dixon, Phillips & Co. went under various names from John Phillips in 1807. From 1813, for five years, they were known as Dixon, Austin, Phillips & Co. and then in 1818 Phillips was dropped from the name. In 1839 Phillips replaced Austin for the company to be known as Dixon, Phillips & Co. until 1865.
Romantic themed images of Sailor's leaving, returning and suffering for their country and loved ones were popular throughout the 19th century and this bowl capitalises on that interest. Circa 1860.
