Minton cup and saucer

Original set for minton lovers! It consists of a tea cup, minton 215 motif (marked o for October), 1 saucer and 1 dessert plate, motif 252, all published by the manufacture of Sarreguemines. Pattern 252 is called 'fly bird'. The 3 elements bear the green signature of a coat of arms with 3 alérions of Sarreguemines. These two motifs are very close and form a delicate, floral ensemble, with branches of flowering trees. A bird on the center branch for saucer and plate, ready to catch the fly! Very good general condition, note small stripes of use saucer bottom, whose colors are paler than the dessert plate with vibrant colors. No cracking, no hair, no gin. Size: Height of the cup: 4, 5 cm. Cup diameter: 9, 3cm. Subcup diameter: 15 cm. Dessert plate diameter: 21 cm. This motif was created by the Vernon family at the Fismes porcelain factory around 1853 for Minton English porcelain; the purchased drawings were purchased by the Sarreguemines factory in 1862 when Fismes closed and used from 1865.
