ANTIQUE MINTONS/CALLAMORE SUGAR & CHOCOLATE POT/ ENGLAND/ C 19OO, \'NEW YORK\':
$129.00
FOR YOUR CONSIDERATIONWE OFFER THIS LOVELY SET OF MINTONS. THE BACK STAMP IS MINTONS, MADE IN ENGLAND, DAVIS CALLAMORE & CO., LIMITED. CALLAMORE & CO. WAS AN IMPORTER IN NEW YORK CITY. THESE PIECES WERE MADE BETWEEN 1891 & 1901.IT IS DIFICULT TO IDENTIFY MINTON\'S BY PATTERN BUT THIS MAY BE\'NEW YORK\'. IT HAS A PLACE OF PROMINENCE ON THE BACKSTAMP SO MAY BE.
THE SET IS MILK WHITE WITH GOLD TRIM AND DECORATED WITH RAISED GOLD BRANCHES, VERY STUNNING.
THE LIDDED SUGAR BOWL IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THERE ARE NO CHIPS OR CRACKS AND THE ONLY GOLD LOSS IS ON TOP OF THE FINIAL. IT STANDS 4 3/8\" AND IS 7\" FROM HANDLE TO HANDLE.
THE CREAMER HAS A HAIRLINE REPAIRED WITH 2 STAPLES AND THERE IS A TINY CHIP ON THE RIM AT EACH END OF THE HAIRLINE. I BELIEVE THIS WAS ABOUT THE TIME THAT THEY RAN OUT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SKILLS TO DO THESE STAPLE REPAIRS. THE CREAMER IS USABLE. IT STANDS 4 1/4\" AT THE RIM AND IS 5 1/2\" FROM HANDLE TO SPOUT.THE LIDDED CHOCOLATE/ COFFEE POT HAS VERY LITTLE GOLD LOSS AND ONLY AT THE RIM. ON THE INSIDE THERE IS A HAIRLINE NEAR THE BOTTOM---YOU WILL HAVE TO MAGNIFY TO SEE IT. IT DOES NOT GO THRU TO THE OUTSIDE BUT YOU CAN SEE A SHADOW OF IT. I LET IT SIT OVERNIGHT WITH WATER IN IT AND THERE WAS NO MOISTURE ON THE OUTSIDE, BUT I\'M SURE HOT LIQUIDS SHOULD BE A DON\'T. THE POT STANDS 9 1/4\" AND IS 6\" FROM HANDLE TO SPOUT.
HAPPY offerDING!
