Footnotes
This pattern occurs in two different versions, one with a pointed leaf border, the other with a floral border. In both versions, the overhanging rock is usually shaded but is left un-shaded on some pieces. The pattern is discussed by Geoffrey Godden, New Hall Porcelains (2004), pps 283-5. Pieces of this pattern sometimes bear the lion rampant mark, discussed by Geoffrey Godden, op cit, pps 285-287.
