This 8" pearlware soup bowl is printed in medium to dark blue with a lovely botanical sheet pattern. The flowers are sometimes referred to as sweetpeas, but they don't look like the sweetpeas in my garden! These are however, stylized flowers, so perhaps they are sweetpeas. Condition is excellent, with no chips, cracks or repairs. Take a look at all of the photos for the details. The soup was probably made in Staffordshire around 1825.
