Pickard Studio's work is, imho, superior not to mention beautiful.

Eileen, You're so right. Klipphahn did the flowers, but someone else probably applied the raised paste which is the base for the design on the border and after that was fired, the gold was applied and fired. It was a complicated process.
Thanks for the love!
