Heraldic devices first appeared on ceramics in Western Europe from the sixteenth century onwards; however, it was not until the 1760s that British ceramic manufactories began executing commissions for services displaying heraldic devices for the gentry. This book explores the rise of the new gentry class and the market for armorial services through the case study of the Pendock Barry service. The case study is presented from three angles. It looks at Pendock Neale Barry (1757–1833) who commissioned the service, then considers the evidence for attributing the service to the Derby factory during the period 1805–1810, and finally looks at the evidence supporting an attribution of the decoration to Billingsley. The case study sets out a novel approach to understanding heraldic devices on ceramics by bringing together the disciplines of detailed genealogical research, cultural knowledge, and chemical analytical compositional data. This multidisciplinary approach enables the armorial services to be considered and understood through the lens of heritage, culture, and science.

This new addition to the Penrose Antiques Ltd short guides containing 25 colour figures gives a brief history of the Derby works from the establishment of a ceramics manufactury in 1748 by Prince de Conde (Louis-Henri de Bourbon) and a French national Andrew Planche from Chantilly through to the present day. The book also defines what can be considered as the golden period of porcelain manufacture in Derby between 1780 and 1830 highlighting the decorators and the influence of patronage in the development of porcelain Manufacture in Derby as evidenced by the Derby Pattern books and the production of the so called named Derby services.
