Do you love Jane Austen and/or the Blue Willow pattern?

Jane and the Blue Willow Princess, my latest PB was inspired when I learned about the discovery of a shard of BW at Steventon, JA’s childhood home.

Preorders Open!

Guess which piece is circa 1810!

JANE AND THE BLUE WILLOW PRINCESS was inspired by the discovery of a shard of Blue Willow pottery at Jane Austen’s childhood home. It celebrates the close relationship Jane had with her sister Cassandra and would make a great gift for any present or future Janeite!
