    Hi I reckon this has been a question that has been posted before.

    How to tell whether a piece is hand painted or Transfer?

    There was at some stage a makers name or else on this piece that may have provided more of a clue, but since almost disapeared.

    Height is 18cm

    Thanks

    I look for the blurred edge. Especially where you think a brush stroke would lift off, such as the tip of a leaf or a blade of grass.
