Not my usual but I bought it for the early Rd. number registered to Edward Moore on 7/10/1886 as part of a suite, which has been mentioned here before. I don't think it's rare as there are others online. It has a hint of sun purpling.

agree, very attractive - Jenny Thompson says it's the 'pattern' that was being Registered - an all-over gadroon pattern which seems to have been the first of such patterns which they became quite keen on, and appears to be the first Registration by Ed. Moore after the lozenge had been abandoned. Thompson also says, when speaking of an earlier Walsh pattern, that ............. "..... Walsh's gadrooning pattern from 1884 influenced firms such as Edward Moore".

I really love this pattern (think I've a sugar or some kind of bowl somewhere) but always wish they'd put a plainer foot on the pieces that have such lovely strong designs. It all seems so ott to have a star cut foot with a wavy rim as well as the serrated rim and gadrooning.
