DescriptionThis is a 'Pine Cone' Pattern Cress Dish (A) and Stand (B). The circular deep dish pierced in the center, and each piece transfer-printed in the center with the same design as the preceding, the scalloped and barbed rim with five trailing floral sprays within a blue line at the edge. Hatched crescent marks in underglaze-blue. The dish is less crisply printed than the stand.
