Minton painted parian ewer. Item 2024
The colours on this rare Minton parian ewer are still quite vibrant and the gilding very bright. The bottle shaped body is decorated with a hand painted neo-classical design featuring birds and fruiting branches. The condition is excellent, but there has been a repair to the rim, just to the left of the handle. It shows up as slightly discoloured in the photo. The date mark is for 1851. It stands 230mm high.
