The five-clawed dragon indicates Chinese imperial production.. Silk and gilt-paper strip; twill weave with secondary binding warp and supplementary patterning wefts .

Plaque 1879 New York City. Working at the London firm Doulton and Company, English ceramist John Bennett evolved a new method in which he painted his designs in slip, or liquid clay, and covered them with clear glaze. In 1876 ìBennett wareî was exhibited to great acclaim at the Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition, prompting Bennett to relocate to New York. Although his early pottery demonstrates Islamic influences, this plaque is more indebted to contemporary British Aesthetic movement design.
