An exquisite hand painted cabinet piece, most likely painted by talented Derby artist Edwin Steele. Study this flower painting closely and enjoy the classic Regency still life arrangement: an elaborate, exquisite grouping of summer flowers on a stone slab or plinth. A very special piece of English porcelain. It looks so good on display with other fine antiques and will enhance any collection of English pottery."
