This trio of Minton bone china serving pieces is decorated in the Gold Ancestral pattern, pattern number S.595. The set comprises two graduated oval serving platters and an oval lidded tureen. Each piece is crafted from white bone china and features delicate transfer-printed gold floral sprigs and scrolling foliate sprays. The forms are detailed with spiral swirl-fluted moulding and scalloped rims finished with gilded edges. The underside of each item bears a gold printed factory mark comprising the pattern name, the pattern number S.595, a central crowned M crest within a laurel wreath, and the text Founded Minton 1793, Bone China, Made in England. Large platter: Length approx. 39.5 cm (measured against a ruler) Medium platter: Length approx. 35.5 cm (measured against a ruler) Lidded tureen: Width across handles approx. 31 cm (measured against a ruler). Condition: The items are in good overall condition with no visible chips, cracks, or apparent restoration. There is some very minor surface wear and light rubbing to the gilded highlights consistent with use. A few small dark kiln specks are visible on the underside rim of the tureen base, consistent with manufacturing idiosyncrasies.
