This lovely platter is printed with a pattern depicting lotus flowers. It is recorded in the TCC Database as “Fans and Scrolls,” Pattern #10584. No marked pieces or published sources identifying the pattern have been found, so it remains “maker unknown.” Floral and botanical patterns have been popular throughout the history of transferware. This is hardly surprising given the love of gardening among British people. Photo courtesy of eBay seller AestheticAntiques.
