Description:

Bone china teapot with a grey-blue printed design.  The pattern is a sheet pattern, that is a repeating pattern that is applied all over regardless of the shape of the object.  The design looks like stylized plant material with star-like flowers heads, but perhaps they are intended to represent stars as the pattern name within the mark is STELLA.
