The design is based on the oriental and includes, as the name suggests, a hollow rock sprouting trailing floral decoration. The reverse features a bird in flight. This popular pattern was first used at Worcester in around 1758.

Marked with an open crescent.

Condition: Perfect - no chips, cracks or restoration. The pattern is clear and very attractively painted.
