| 7 |    | SHORT DESCRIPTION: Hand painted Germany porcelain teacup from the bark Europa. Decorated with sailing ship flying the French flag. Broken. NOTES: According to John F. Rinaldi Nautical Antiques, Kennebunkport, Maine says this style of cup were usually commissioned by 19th century sea captains while they were in the port of Hamburg, Germany. A similar cup was marked with the name "J. G. Hauthal & Co". J.G. Hauthal & Co. was a 19th-century German porcelain decorator and manufacturer based in Hamburg. Known for high-quality, hand-painted porcelain—particularly cups, saucers, and vases featuring intricate maritime scenes, ships (e.g., Rowena, Fetisch), and gilt trim—they operated around the 1850s to late 1800s. The Museen Nord holds examples for the bark Trident and bark Schon by the "J.G. Hauthal & Co." A Hauthal advertisement in the December 4, 1860 'Staats- und gelehrte' lists the company at Hohebrucke No. 1. Many similar examples (of different vessels) were found online marked 'Captain's Cup Hamburg, Handmalerei' with a hand-inked series/edition number and an initial. Some came in a specialized box (marked 'Original Kaptians-tasse nach historischen vorbildem handgemalt, Captain's Cup' which translates: Original Captain's Cup, hand-painted according to a historical model) with a brochure marked 'copyright Warnecke Hamburg' (August Warnecke 1920-1999). None of them have the hand applied names like ours. Considering the text on the box, it seems as though August Warnecke was copying an earlier manufacturer's wares. | CL7111 | |||||||
