Description

One pearlware tea bowl with a scenic purple transfer pattern. The tea bowl has a very small foot and a shaped body that pinches in slightly in the middle for a better grip. The pattern on the outside is an extensive scene with archways (possible ruins), a distant manor house and two stags in the foreground. The inside and outside rims have some blue splotches where the blue-tinted glaze dripped. The inside of the cup has a floral border inside geometric diamonds. The bottom of the bowl shows the two stags with the manor house behind them.
