Has the Warranted, Staffordshire mark. In very good condition with overall crazing and two small glaze chips on the base edge and slight utensil use marks, but no pottery chips, no cracks, hairlines or repairs. THE LEGEND: true story of the willow pattern. It tells of Knoon-shee, a lovely Chinese maiden, whose affections were bestowed upon her fathers secretary, Chang, but who was commanded by her parents to wed a wealthy rival suitor. She refused to comply with their wishes, whereupon her enraged father locked her up in the little house just visible on the left of the temple. From here she contrived to send a message to her lover, Gather thy blossom, ere it be stolen. Thus encouraged, Chang succeeded in entering the apple orchard and carrying off his beloved.So we see them hurrying over the bridge. Knoon-shee with a distaff, and Chang carrying her box of jewels, pursued by the angry father brandishing a whip. The lovers made good their escape in the little ship sailing by and landed on the island, which can be seen on the left of the picture, where they took refuge in the little wooden house. But the father and discarded suitor tracked them and set fire to the house while they were sleeping and so the lovers perished. Next morning their spirits rose, pheonix-like, in the form of two doves and we see them, with outstretched wings, flying off to the realms of eternal happiness.
