Jenny Lind was a Swedish opera singer, and one of the most highly regarded singers of the 19th century.
Royal Staffordshire Jenny Lind pattern was very popular. It was an early 1900's replica of a pattern produced in the mid 1800's by the Meigh family of potters at the Old Hall Works in Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent. The '1795' in the pattern name refers to the start of the original Meigh family pottery.
