The Willow pattern, more commonly known as Blue Willow, is a distinctive and elaborate pattern used on ceramic kitchen/housewares. The pattern was popular in 18th century England, e.g. porcelain designed by Thomas Minton around 1790 and has been in use for over 200 years. The design was inspired by the china England imported from China during the late 18th century.

Steppes Hill Farm Antiques
United Kingdom
STEPPES HILL FARM ANTIQUES was founded by William (Billy) Buck over fifty years ago. About twenty years later he was joined in the business by his two eldest sons; David and Christopher. Billy’s first love is early English porcelain, but he also specialises in collectable silver. David concentrates on the silver side and is responsible for putting this web site together. Christopher, as well as being a partner in Steppes Hill Farm, has his own business dealing in fine Georgian furniture and accessories.
Over the years we have been privileged to have formed a number of well known private collections of both Ceramics and Silver and as well as building friendly long term personal relationships with our clients, we also regard the academic approach as all important.
