Each plate is hand-painted with a different flower and signed by the artist "Challinor". The verso identifies in hand-painted script the variety of flower illustrated, such as poppy, tulip etc. The Pickard China story dates back to 1893 when Wilder Pickard established the company in Edgerton, Wisconsin. At the turn of the 20th century, Pickard was moved to Chicago where the company specialized in hand-painted art pieces.
