‘ELEPHANT’ (Fig. 31)<br />
This pattern derives its name from <strong>the</strong> elephant-shaped rocks to <strong>the</strong> right<br />
of <strong>the</strong> pattern. The plate has a cobalt wash that is not always present with<br />
early versions. (Later versions even have a winged insect which was used<br />
also on Swansea Porcelain). The Chinoiserie element is made obvious by<br />
<strong>the</strong> willow trees, flowering shrubs and <strong>the</strong> small fenced garden. The<br />
pattern is again engraved with a two-dimensional feel allowing <strong>the</strong> pattern<br />
to show more clearly. The colour wash does provide some depth of field<br />
but this is not achieved by engraving.<br />
