Many Netherlands items were produced in the elegant, oriental-inspired octagonal shape, also found in the Booths similar Pagoda pattern. The distinguishing feature of this shape is the combination of an octagonal cross section with a circular rim, found on cups, jugs, teapots, etc (see photo right). Around the same time, the firm of WOOD & SONS produced items in an almost identical shape - see the Alva, Old Bow Kakiyemon, Rangoon and Westover patterns. Netherlands plates were also produced in circular and twelve-sided shapes. |
