Abstract

"A design in an octagon enclosed within a square. Four headless women's figures, three-quarter length, emerge at right angles to each other from a centre surrounded by a wreath of cloud or smoke inscribed 'Thunder Lightning Wind Rain'. The neck of the figure rising vertically from the centre terminates in roses and is inscribed 'Gather your Rose-Buds while you may'. Projecting horizontally to the right is one terminating in bunches of grapes; another bunch below the waist is inscribed 'Nursery'. Facing downwards is a figure whose head is replaced by a smoking chimney-pot; she is 'Hot House'. The figure directed horizontally to the left terminates in primroses and is inscribed 'Two Bunches of Penny Primroses'."--British Museum online catalogue.
