A set of 12 dinner plates and 3 cake stands by Minton from 1874 featuring mint green borders and beautifully hand-painted butterflies.
The 1874 production of these Minton dinner plates corresponds with the beginnings of the factory’s Aesthetic Movement china. Highly naturalistic, hand-painted butterflies are accented by delicate botanicals and finely gilded borders. The mint green ground evokes Chinese celadons, an appropriate reference for the Aesthetic style which often took inspiration from Asian art.
