A dozen rim chips mostly minute, very minor
surface marks. Style: Gothic floral A super Pugin design, featured several times
in the Mintons catalogue and seen from time to
time and in some super colours but this pink
colourway is outstanding. Printed overglaze as
the colour could not withstand the higher
temperatures of being fired underglaze. The design has various pattern numbers
according to the colorway the number of this is
unknown, it has the number 1071 in blue and tan
and 1377 in blue, grey and 'gold'. The earlier
number puts it well in to the era before Minton,
Hollins & Co. and Mintons (China Works)
split in 1868. Some have suggested that it was
designed by William Morris however the style and
pattern number place it firmly in the Pugin
design era. Verso clean but a little grubby, embossed
Mintons etc..
