The remaining space is filled with more flowering plants painted blue, green, yellow, and orange.
This set was hand painted in the Netherlands circa 1860.

The Lightning pattern was made by several of the best Delft factories, including The Peacock, The White Star, and The Greek A, made the pattern.
The pattern was inspired by Japanese porcelains imported into the Netherlands in the 17th century.
The Philadelphia Museum of Art has a plate made in its collection at De Witte Ster, "The White Star," between 1705 and 1723.
