      the possibilities are endless ( 27 factories were doing this)
      the chances are big very that this english , it is not 18 century chinese ( oranje rim)missing a cluster of branches this is 2 ckuster in stead of a three cluster ( is an wierd deviation in chinese)



      the only thing i can say it is probably made after 1850 ( english)

      It's a "blue willow" pattern depicted from a famous story that is very significant to Chinese culture, roughly estimated to have been created in the 1780s. The story of the pattern, often found on Chinese porcelain, is that of two star-crossed lovers from two different social classes who fall into a forbidden love. The lovers leave their homes to be together. Later they are tragically killed before being transformed into doves by the gods. You can look up "chinese blue willow story."
