Note: Daniel gained the patronage of the 15th Earl of Shrewsbury, Charles Talbot (1753-1827) and his wife the Countess Elizabeth Hoey, who lived at Heythrop House. A large commission was completed for them in 1827 and comprised an extensive service. See the example on page 10 in 'Daniel Patterns on Porcelain Tablewares', for a plate with the same coronet and pattern. The Shrewsbury shape became very popular as it continued to be supported by the descendants of the Earl.
