A lovely romantic floral border with a central image of an Asian landscape with Pagoda style buildings in the trees.
The wide running border of floral garlands and scrolls meets a molded and scalloped rim.
An early and charming pattern.

Marked: Impressed Davenport in upper case letters, a printed mark of a figure in Far Eastern costume in a landscape.
Good conditions with the expected minor fritting to the rims due to age and use.
