Known for his flower and fish designs W. H. Morley was also famous for his bird and game motifs, which Lenox was advertising by 1906. Part of the present set is the one painted with three ptarmigan in a snow covered landscape. For a plaque painted with those species see Alice Cooney Frelinghuysen American Porcelain 1770-1920, page 256.
