Notes: A Liberty & Co side dish of circular form decorated with a symmetrical honesty pod (lunaria annua) decoration, designed by Archibald Knox. This a complimentary piece to the 0231 honesty pod knot coffee/tea service and is executed in the now iconic ‘Liberty Style’ incorporating Celtic ornament and interlace with a proto-modern sensibility.
