Wonderful aesthetic movement tea cup in hand-painted and hand-gilt porcelain by the English manufactory Minton. Blue background with stylized red flowers imitating the cloisonné technique, very common in the Japonisme ware.
Attributed to Christopher Dresser, a famous designer that was working for Minton in 1867. He made very decorative designs, using very often this special shade of blue. A very small quantity of his work was signed, but the quality of some designs allows to make further -attribution to him, such as this tea cup.
Signed with Minton hallmarks beneath, “Minton”, number of the model G596 (China ware, made in 1871), Minton stamp, and cypher year.
Dimensions
– cup : 8,5 cm diam. x 5,5 cm H
– saucer : 14 cm diam.
