Bowl
Small, white, salt glazed, stoneware bowl. The exterior is applied with reliefs of ships and a harbour, with a full length figure of Admiral Edward Vernon (1684-1757). The style of the decoration is similar to that of the numerous medals struck to commemorate the capture of Porto Bello in 1739.
