Lidded jar 1877-82 Crown Derby The history of the Derby porcelain manufactory can generally be divided into two periods. The old Derby porcelain was produced from 1750 to 1848, and was foremost distinguished by the ownership of William Duesbury I and II. When the original factory closed in 1848, a number of former workers established a separate smaller factory at King Street, Derby, using Crown Derbys original molds and patterns and oftentimes incorporating the factory marks on its wares. Around 1876, a separate company established a factory at Osmaston Road under the name Derby Crown Porcelain Company (and eventually bought the King Street factory in 1935), although the firm did not being producing commercial pieces until two years later. In 1890, the factory was granted the privilege of using the title "Royal Crown Derby Porcelain Company."

Stirrup. Culture: German, Munich. Dimensions: H. 8 3/4 in. (22.2 cm); W. 5 1/4 in. (13.3 cm); D. 3 1/2 in. (8.9 cm); Wt. 13.6 oz. (385.6 g). Date: second half 17th century.This stirrup bears on the rim of its footplate the name of its original owner, a certain Jacob Clas. This elaborated type of pierced decoration, here displaying geometrical motifs, is typical of the production of Eastern Germany at this time. The object is stamped on both sides with the control mark of Munich: a monk with upraised arms, the city's heraldic device. Cities' control marks are rare on iron equestrian equipment, and Munich seems to be the only one in the 17th century to require this practice, which is also documented on several contemporary horse bits (see for example 14.25.1812).
