A gallery of patterns attributed a factory
known by the collector’s name Mrs Bowring<\/h2>\n

This gallery is intended to aid research into a group of bone china believed to be from the same,
so far unidentified, factory. Below are three more galleries of related bone china.<\/p>\n

The intention is to provide an inclusive image gallery for future students of Regency china.<\/p>\n

If you have additional patterns, or the same patterns in different shapes, let us know.
If you have a marked piece of any of these patterns or shapes, let us know.<\/p>\n

The images in the gallery below have captions with details of pattern number and shape,
additional information in (\u00a0 ) refers to a publication, in [ ] refers to an image credit.<\/p>\n
