拍品專文

Major General Sir George Burns may well have inherited the service from his great-uncle, Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan. Each grisaille 'shield' and motto in the service is different, and several of the mottos are mis-spelt. Their meanings are unknown, though it is possible they may have Jesuit significance (see D. S. Howard, The Choice of the Private Trader, London, 1994, no. 139, pp. 132 and 133 where a strainer and dish from this service, in the Hodroff Collection, is illustrated).
