As the public has been greatly imposed upon by imposters and pretenders to the said art; any doubtful may have a pattern of his performance, as he desires, on other satisfaction that what the workmanship merits.\u00a0As the want of this art has rendered great qualities of valuable China useless, when broken belonging to set and otherwise. He hopes for the favour and encouragement of the public; by directing as above he will wait on ladies and gentlemen and execute the commands with care and dispatch.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image012.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3553\" title=\"image012\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image012.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"612\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image012.jpg 400w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/image012-196x300.jpg 196w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This transcript was provided by Irish collector Peter Francis<\/p>\n<p>Photo courtesy of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rarenewspapers.com\">Timothy Hughes<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pue\u2019s Occurrences, (Dublin Newspaper), 14th-18th February 1769 To the Nobility, Gentry, &amp; c, Chinaware mended on a new principle.
