Essentially perfect for actual marks totally
insignificant however more glazing flaws than usual
for the company. Style:
Oriental scene An excellent design of its type a stylised
landscape in the oriental taste. One of a
series of twelve reintroduced (copied) around
1880 by Mintons owned by the scurrilous rogue
Colin Campbell the original series having been
made by Herbert Minton and perhaps his
protégé Michael Hollins nearlt
half a century earlier. It did not prove very
popular, from the evidence that I have seen, in
its earlier day so a poor design choice, one of
many poor choices, by Mintons. Yet on its own having the added value of
scarcity and with the nuances of intrigue not
only attractive and decorative but a thoroughly
interesting talking point. Verso very clean, embiossed Mintons etc.
