The Aynsley Cup of Knowledge Deco Diamond pattern features a rich, creamy lavender glaze of the type more commonly associated with contemporaneous Czechoslovakian ware of the "Czecho-Deco" era. The design appears on two different cup shapes, the wider Doris and the small er cups of the type made for the British Empire Exhibition. The Doris pattern has no topmark; the smaller Wembly pattern has text in the well of the saucer:
