so accustomed to seeing pure geometric patterns on pressed bowls, that this one really stood out .   The moth/butterfly looks a bit exotic rather than British  -  and so disappointing that there isn't an impressed Reg. No.  -  so not sure where to start looking.   About 8"/200mm diameter - with typical older type of flat ground outer foot rim.    Would be intrigued to know who's bowl this might be, so if anyone has an idea would love to hear, and thanks for looking. :)

Pamela
Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

thank you very much Pamela, especially for the links - I know I was being lazy and I should have looked harder.  Yes, I agree, it is more attractive than usual I think, and I would love it in Carnival, if indeed that was done. :)    Paul S.
