Between 1817 and 1823 Charles Izard Manigault (1795-1874) traveled as a merchant to such far-flung places as China, India, Australia and parts of South America. In 1820, while in Canton, Manigault ordered a 381-piece dinner service "with Arms & crest Painted Brown." Canton enamellers reproduced the brown-Fitzhugh pattern and copied the coat-of-arms from Manigault's engraved bookplate.Collection
