A George III porringer with rococo decoration, by ID (Grimwade number 3630) London 1761 (unusually with two impressions of the date letter), engraved with the arms of White of Hulton (Northamptonshire) with More in pretence and crested for White of Hulton .
Price:

John White of Hulton in Northamptonshire registered the family arms in 1750 so that this porringer was presumably made for him or for his successor. It has not, however, proved possible to find this marriage in the extant genealogical records.

A George III double-ended egg cup, by Sebastian Crespell London 1824, crested for John Poulett, 5th Earl Poulett (1783-1864) .
Price: £285.00

John Poulett, 5th Earl Poulett (1783-1864) was educated at Harrow and Brasenose College, Oxford. He later held several positions in the Somerset Militia. In 1809, it was reported in the Gentleman's Magazine that he had married "the sister of Mrs. Farquharson" at Weymouth (although there seem to be no other references to this marriage) and in 1820 he married the Hon. Charlotte Portman at the British Embassy in Paris. He inherited the Earldom of Paulet in 1819, shortly before his second marriage, and is notable for being one of the 22 stalwarts who voted against the 3rd reading of the Reform Bill in 1832.
