<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ascot, post: 235419, member: 96&quot;]I just started researching this piece, and it appears to be an early one. According to The Potteries website, the mark dates it 1805-1833.</p><p><br /></p><p>The bowl portion is 10 1/4&quot; diameter, and overall height is 7&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>My questions are</p><p><br /></p><p>1. Does anyone know if this pattern has a name?</p><p><br /></p><p>2. Should I try to peroxide the stains on the interior or just leave it as is? (I&#039;ve always been successful with a peroxide soak, but never tried it on a piece this old.)</p><p><br /></p><p>3. What would this piece have been used for? The bowl portion (where the food goes) is about 2&quot; deep and flat bottomed, so probably not for soup or stew. Vegetables? Meat? I just want to be sure I&#039;m using the term &quot;tureen&quot; correctly. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for your opinions and assistance!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/Ascot/IMG_0070.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/Ascot/IMG_0065.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/Ascot/IMG_0064.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/Ascot/IMG_0068.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/Ascot/IMG_0067.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
