    Hello Board Friends - I am trying to see if I am on the right track in researching this piece. The underplate measures 8 1/2" across and the boat about 8" across and 6" tall. It is thick walled and the handles appear to be applied. I am guessing Staffordshire mid 19th century. Am I close? Google images shows me similar images but without much helpful information. Thanks in advance for whatever help you can provide.

    Trying to educate myself here...
    Doesn't a sauce boat have a single handle and a pouring spout? (AKA a gravy boat?)
    I would have called this a tureen (missing the matching ladle), but WDIK.
    It does remind me of Burgess & Leigh's Asiatic Pheasants pattern... without the pheasants. :rolleyes:

    Sauce tureen for bread sauce or similar OR it's for sugar, which came in big lumps. Early 19th or after.

    Most welcome. Those rather faded transfers tend to be earlier, I think.
