“The Tower Pink pattern is an original archived design from the early 1800s. Referred to as transferware, the elaborate pattern is engraved by hand onto copper plates and then transferred onto the ceramic by skilled artisans using pink underglaze, which was perfected back in 1835. A color variation of the popular and original Tower Blue pattern, Tower Pink depicts The Bridge of Salaro in Rome, Italy. The exquisitely landscaped scene comes from an original 1814 engraving. A fantastic floral border shows influences from early Tower porcelain designs, and scalloped and ribbed edges form the classic Gadroon shape that enhances this dinnerware's beauty.”
