History: This trio was manufactured by Salt & Nixon which operated from around 1897-1904 so it likely dates from the very early 20th century (late Victorian to Edwardian era). While there is no specific pattern name “Spring” on the back stamp appears to be a named range or shape series used by the manufacturer. The pattern design features lavish rococo style swirls in bronze-gold with intricate floral garlands of roses, yellow flowers, and green foliage, the scalloped edges are finished with gold trim. The floral designs appear to be transfer printed with some hand painted accents. This trio is well suited for collectors of early Staffordshire porcelain, especially for their ornate patterns and rarity.
 
Flaws: No
