I find this pair of exceptional beautifully decorated cachepots particularly interesting as they are made in Peking circa, 1880 by the maker Bao Heng Xiang Here is a very special commission, a gold freedom box made by Johh Linnitt in 1844 celebrating the signing of the Treaty of Nanking, the plaque on the cover chased with the British and the Chinese gathered round a table, framed by a border of heraldic flowers, all on a matted ground, with a dove bearing an olive branch above, with trophies and arms at the angles, the sides and base engraved with shells, scrolls, flowers and pagodas, incorporating the arms of Pottinger, with Cooke in pretence, and the City of London, the interior of the lid with a presentation inscription which reads: A common council holden in The Chamber of the Guild Hall of the City of London
For example, a 1x long shaft on a size 14 hook is going to be the length of a size 12 hook
