The Complete motif consists of a Large Yellow and Black Snake with a White and Black underbelly surrounded by 5 Colorful Desert Flowers and All on a multi Colored Ground. William is so thorough that he even adds a "WM" offset Signature cane on the inside discretely under one of the leaves as to not detract from the motif. The detail in which William goes to on each and every piece is astonishing to say the least. The bottom is clear and slightly concave and show negligible shelf ware. I have also added a short history of William below and one of his brochures (see last picture) that he helped design personally back in his home town of Perth, Scotland.
