Description:
Bone china teacup with a black printed pattern depicting Chinese-style figures in a garden landscape. On one side a woman with a parasol stands with a child, on the other side a seated woman plays a stringed instrument, between the two prints is an over sized urn with a large floral arrangement.

This appears to be the only identifiable example of work from this factory, which has normally been recorded as an earthenware pottery.
