Description: Delve into the elegance of the Victorian era with this exquisite Mintons porcelain basket, a genuine treasure from Stoke-On-Trent, England, from the late 1800s/early 1900s. The stamp on the base of the basket dates from 1891-1912, identifying the window of time when it was created. Adorned with a loose floral pattern featuring roses, pansies, and forget-me-nots complemented by intricate gold gilding, this piece exudes the timeless beauty characteristic of art pottery from the period. Measuring 4.25 inches in length, 3.8 inches in height, and 2.3 inches in width, this small yet sophisticated basket is a testament to the craftsmanship of the era with its ribbed handle and quilted pattern porcelain. Lovingly handmade and bearing the painted backstamp of its era, it is a true collector's item that captures the essence of a bygone era. The basket is in excellent antique condition. There are no chips or cracks. The gold gilt is in excellent condition as well, with no visible wear. There is minimal wear on the base (where it came in contact with a table) and a couple of spots of slight discoloration. Please see the pictures for a complete sense of description. Thank you!
