As stated in Volume 4, this is the only known pearlware example of this group, but it is recorded in porcelain, as is a companion group. I only know of the two porcelain groups below. They are in the collection of Rex Stark, photographed by Gavin Ashworth, and are shown here from the Chipstone Foundation's site at http://www.chipstone.org/html/2014/11-Journal-Figures.htm,

The figure above is recorded in William Baird's Annals of Duddington and Portobello, page 444. published 1898. I know of nobody who has seen this magnificent creation, which may well have succumbed to the ravishes of time.
