The donor of this soup plate, Ivor Hugh Norman Evans (1886-1957), was an anthropologist and archaeologist who spent much of his career in the then British Malaya, and was appointed curator of the Museum in Taiping in 1917.It therefore seems likely that he acquired it there. The copper plate for the pattern was at the Spode factory before its closure. It was Patent no. 91579, registered in 1853 by George Houghton of 41 Threadneedle Street, London. A plate with a similar design is in the Victoria and Albert Museum, inv. no.
