pfel item detail
Pattern description: A simple pattern on white china, which consists of the line's house flag in deep cobalt blue, with flag pole, bear and initials in yellow. The logo measures 1" across.
Pattern notes: Note that though the flag in the images above may appear black, it is indeed a very deep cobalt blue. A slight variation exists of this pattern, in which the flag pole is light blue, and the top of the pole is a flat "T", as opposed to being capped with a ball.
