OBS

Plat à légumes au motif du saule bleu, vers 1850. Créé dans le Staffordshire à la fin du XVIIIe siècle et repris depuis ce temps en plusieurs versions, le «willow», comme on le désigne en anglais, deviendra fort populaire au Québec après 1830. Le motif est emprunté à une combinaison d'éléments à la céramique chinoise.
