Victorian Majolica Begonia Leaves

The rich colours and textures of Begonia Rex provided Victorian potters with the ideal inspiration for fruit and dessert sets. Most are unmarked, but sometimes a rare marked piece like the Forester's comport below can be found. For more details visit Premier Antiques
