Grimwades "Maoriland" and "Maori Ware"
Colonial scenes were popular on English China.
Here are some examples of Maori scenes on a "Maoriland" jug and "Maori Ware" teapot, both made by Grimwades. I guess they are early twentieth century but I have not researched them at all.
These were my father's. They have sat on a friend's shelf for a few years as I have nowhere safe to keep them. The photos were rushed and the lighting harsh, but as they have been sitting on the iPad for months I thought I should post them anyway.
I'm watching this auction to see what it goes for:
