Decorative tray (2) - Minton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire - United Kingdom

Pair of English Stone China trays decorated in the celebrated “Amherst Japan” pattern, one of the most successful nineteenth-century interpretations of Orientalist and Imari taste in Staffordshire production. The composition features a large floral vase, leafy vines, an oriental pavilion and landscape motifs, framed by a rich floral border in cobalt blue, iron red and orange, with small gilt accents. The shaped form and quality of the decoration are consistent with Minton production in the early nineteenth century. Marks and attribution On the reverse is a blue cartouche bearing the inscription “AMHERST JAPAN”, model number 63 and “STONE CHINA”, as well as an impressed mark in the paste. The combination of the cartouche, pattern name and technical characteristics allows the pieces to be attributed to the Minton factory in Stoke-on-Trent. The Amherst Japan pattern is documented in Minton production from the 1820s and was particularly widespread during the 1830s and 1840s. Condition Very good. No chips or hairline cracks detected; glossy surface, decoration well preserved; slight signs of normal use and minor manufacturing irregularities consistent with age.
