Connie Rogers had an excellent informative article about this pattern in the Transfer ware Collectors Club newsletter 2011 Summer Issue, Vol. X1I No. 2

It is in very good antique condition, there is a bruise to the foot rim and some fritting to front. A nice item to add to any collection of Georgian Ironstone, Mason's Patent Ironstone China or hand coloured brown and white transfer-ware.
