Victorian Minton Majolica Cherub Putti Visiting Card Tray

Code: EA0871

SOLD

Lovely Minton majolica card tray modelled as a putto draped on a stand with moulded grapes and leaves. He is holding a tray coloured in the classic Minton turquoise, draped in a purple cloth and with a green headband around his golden curls.

Marked to the base, I think the date cypher is a squashed form of that for 1869.


He measures 8" high and approx. 5 1/2" wide at the widest part.

Condition is excellent with no damage or restoration, just a tiny paint flake to the purple material at the back.
