Royal Doulton "Inspiration" (LS1016)

Royal Doulton Inspiration (LS1016) is part of Royal Doulton's Lambethware range and has a very attractive blue floral design on a stoneware ground. The brown-accented rim gives the pattern warmth, while the blue flowers and leaves make it one of the prettier designs from the series.

Inspiration feels a little underrated compared with some of the more familiar Lambethware patterns. The blue decoration is fresh and pleasing without being too busy, making it a good choice for customers who like practical stoneware with a softer floral look.

Lambethware patterns were made for everyday dining and serving, with pieces such as plates, bowls, cups, mugs, jugs, casseroles, platters and serving dishes forming the useful core of the range. When matching Inspiration, the LS1016 code, blue floral transfer, stoneware ground and brown rim are the main details to compare.

Inspiration is the sort of pattern where the right replacement piece can quietly rescue a part service. A platter, sugar bowl, dinner plate or bowl may be all that is needed to keep the set useful, especially when the colour and rim detail match well.
