Looks to be 'flow blue' china. That process was developed in the 1820's and was popular through to the 1920's

It's not "flow blue". I don't see any "bleed" of the pigment.

The pattern is known as “Blue Onion” ("Zwiebelmuster" in German) although the depicted items are not actually onions. It was designed by Johann Gregor Herold in 1739 and first manufactured by Meissen from then until the late 19th Century. Herold likely based it on what was originally known as the “bulb” pattern on a Chinese bowl from the Kangxi period. The original pattern had peaches and pomegranates with floral motifs of peonies and asters with winding stems around a bamboo stalk, which Herold modified to make more familiar to Europeans.

By the later part of the 18th century, other porcelain factories were copying Meissen’s "Zwiebelmuster" and during the 19th century almost all the European producers had a version of it; notably Wedgwood from the 1870s (who called it “Meissen” pattern) and a number of Staffordshire potteries. This one is Staffordshire:

The painting may be by Andreas Einberger (1878-1953). I did not verify the signature. I only suspect it may be his.
