Sowerby pattern 1568

Design representation for Sowerby RD 355629, 24 September 1880 - Parcel 9.

Sowerby pattern 1568, shown on page 11 of Pattern book IX (1882) as a 'vase' or 'spill'.
Stained version shown in Cottle (page 54).
Oddly, all the examples that I have seen of the pattern 1568 'vases' have a clear registry date lozenges for 11 March 1881 - Parcel 2, and Cottle (p104) and Thistlewood both wrongly collate pattern 1568 with RD 362734 of 11 March 1881.
Sowerby RD 355629 of 24 September 1880 - Parcel 9 and RD 362734 of 11 March 1881- Parcel 2 are chronologically consecutive Sowerby registrations, so perhaps whoever was responsible for the lozenge mark on the RD 355629 mould simply misread the Sowerby 'master' list of RD numbers and applied the wrong lozenge.
