Blue Willow, an ever popular china pattern, has been in continuous production for over 215 years. This classic, beautiful pattern is made all the more interesting by the Legend of the Willow Plate. There are many versions of the legend, and this is one of my favourites. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ge1LD8JDfYg
