Antique China and Porcelain

.......Canton can be easily be distinguished from it derivative, transfer-decorated English Blue Willowware. Canton's hand-painted decoration has no people on the bridge, no fencing, and usually, no birds. It is a thick-walled pottery compared to Willowware. Nanking, a similar but superior grade of Chinese export porcelain, has small spears and posts in place of the rain and cloud border pattern and will often have a figure holding an umbrella on the bridge that is not found on early Cantonware. cont'd
