Bring home a touch of English charm with this beautiful Teaset from Alfred Meakin England. the "Old Willow" The pattern tells the story of a wealthy merchant named Tso Ling, who had a beautiful daughter named Kwang-se. The father and daughter resided in a beautiful pagoda, situated under a pine tree next to a bridge. Tso Ling promised his daughter's hand in marriage to a wealthy businessman associate of his. But Kwang-se fell in love with Chang, her father's kind and handsome but poor clerk. When Tso Ling found out about the secret relationship, he was furious. To prevent the affair, he kept Kwang-se locked up. The two managed to elope across the sea to a cottage. Tso Ling would not stand for this and went after them by boat. He was about to have them killed when the gods intervened and transformed the lovers into turtle doves. The love story has inspired many plays, books, poems, and, of course, this Teaset.
