Over a warm ivory ground, each is banded at the rim with a turquoise \"jeweled\" border set with cross-and-quatrefoil cartouches and hand-tinted floral roundels, while polychrome swags of pink, yellow, and coral blossoms garland the well and a single delicate bouquet centers the plate. The edge is finished in a rich iron-red line. Marked to the reverse with the Minton globe stamp — \u003cem\u003eMintons, Est. 1793, England\u003c\/em\u003e — and the hand-painted pattern number A4707.

This set carries the \"Mintons England\" globe mark used around the turn of the twentieth century, dating it to approximately 1900, with its pattern individually numbered by hand in the Minton tradition. The jeweled turquoise border and floral festoons belong to the opulent, historically-minded taste of the late Victorian and Edwardian table. More than a century on, genuine marked Minton like this remains prized by collectors and hosts alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\" class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\" class=\"overflow-x-auto w-full px-2 mb-6 print:overflow-x-visible\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"min-w-full border-collapse text-sm leading-[1.7] whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cthead class=\"text-left\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\" class=\"text-text-100 border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.6)] py-2 pr-4 align-top font-bold\"\u003eField\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\" class=\"text-text-100 border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.6)] py-2 pr-4 align-top font-bold\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eObject\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eSet of 4 antique plates (bread \/ dessert size)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eMaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eMinton, England (globe mark, \u003cem\u003eEst. 1793\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003ePattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eA4707 — turquoise jeweled border, floral swags, central bouquet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eEra\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eCirca 1900 (Mintons \"England\" globe mark)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eGood antique condition; honest age wear.

The turquoise-and-floral palette layers beautifully with other blue-and-white and famille-rose china, and the Minton name gives the set a pedigree a nameless plate can't match — a genuine, century-old piece of English elegance.\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Viridian Eclection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47854466269289,"sku":null,"price":294.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/0093\/9369\/files\/DSC01829.jpg?v=1785515017","url":"https:\/\/viridianeclection.com\/products\/set-of-4-antique-minton-plates-turquoise-jeweled-border-with-floral-swags-pattern-a4707-england-c-1900","provider":"Viridian Eclection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
