It is extremely rare to find printed decoration on a Lowestoft 'Trifle'. The only example known to John Howell at the time of writing was a small bowl inscribed 'A trifle from Hingham' formerly in the Colman Collection, see his paper, Transfer-Printed Lowestoft Porcelain, ECC Trans, Vol.7, Pt.3 (1970), p.219. A saucer dish printed with an Oriental landscape with a similar border, also 'washed over by hand', is illustrated by Geoffrey Godden, English Blue and White Porcelain (2004), p.303, pl.382.
