Teapot
A lozenge-shaped teapot, transfer-printed in blue. On each side are two mermen with tails entwined, blowing shells, who act as supporters to a central scallop containing a trophy of arms inscribed 'TRAFALGAR', flanked by a pyramid and fort; a pre-1801 Union Flag flies above. A key pattern border runs around the top of the teapot with anchors, roses, thistles, tied palm and olive branches. There are ochre coloured borders to the scalloped top and on the handle.
