Plate, 6.5 inches diameter. Purple transfer with polychrome clobbering. Printed maker's mark for Jacob Furnival & Co. This pattern features a center pattern with a band of double lines with a continuous chain of white club shapes. The center pattern has a chain of small leaves inside the band and a lovely red rose in the center. The border echoes the center band with double line inside and chain of small leaves. There is also a line around the rim and a single red rose set on the band at three places around the rim.

The firm of ​Jacob Furnival & Co. opened at the Elder Road Pottery Works around 1845. During its lifetime, the company was involved in export to America through the following agencies: Baldwin, Pond & Co., Woonsocket; J.C. Huntington & Co., Cincinnati; and Huntington & Brooks, Cincinnati. The company was initially a partnership between Jacob Furnival, G. Oxley, S.B. Taylor, and S.C. Pears, however, ​this partnership was dissolved on 13th December 1852.

The question thus arises as to who formed the "& Co." part of the company title, after the previous partnership had dissolved? It seems likely that one partner would have been Jacob's brother, Thomas. He may, at least for a while, have been joined by John Derbyshire and Francis Joseph Emery (later of Bleak Hill Works), as a patent for "Improvements in apparatus for supporting articles of china and earthenware in kilns and ovens" was granted to Jacob, Thomas, John and Francis on 3rd January 1859. However, this four-way partnership (if, indeed, this is correct) appears to have been reduced to Jacob and Thomas at some point. Jacob seems to have ceased trading around 1870. The last design was registered by the company in 1868.
