The particular design of rose knob used on this teapot shares significant similarities with knobs that have been excavated from the Leeds site: its petals are separated, it terminates in a cluster of leaves and buds and it has an elongated ‘v’ shaped groove at the base of the flower head. Furthermore, ‘classic’ terminals comparable to those on this teapot have also been found at the Leeds site. However, comparable knobs and terminals have also been found at the Swinton factory, which was managed by Leeds between 1785 and 1806. Potters unconnected with Leeds also used rose knobs and ‘classic’ terminals. It is therefore difficult to securely attribute this teapot to a particular manufacturer on the basis of its sprigged decoration.referenceterm-106779adlib-term-106779f0706fcd-d94c-3987-bcb5-f7f794332b6a18th Century, Latereferenceterm-107437adlib-term-10743796f4b0d1-fc11-39ff-ae91-1b23d888d479George IIIcream colouredreferenceterm-42861adlib-term-428615b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956cearthenwarereferenceterm-107563adlib-term-10756338dcd825-1de1-3222-82c6-15a95729b5ffenamelsreferenceterm-107733adlib-term-10773300160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4lead-glazeWidthcm18.4referencemedia-34252adlib-media-3425289e73e10-a439-3802-b5aa-f282d2f194bfjpegaa/aa8/C_1070_20_26_20A_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels550widthpixels76016162650586561imagejpegaa/aa8/mid_C_1070_20_26_20A_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels362widthpixels50016162650586561imagejpegaa/aa8/C_1070_20_26_20A_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels550widthpixels76016162650586561imagejpegaa/aa8/preview_C_1070_20_26_20A_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels181widthpixels25016162650586561image0media
