This lovely antique Mintons bone china tea demitasse cup and saucer set features an ornate hand enameled turquoise and green chinoiserie-influenced floral and foliate pattern with large pink, blue, and yellow flowers known as B833. The leaves are finished in bright lime green and turquoise. The area beneath the rims bear wavy turquoise bands accented with yellow flowers. The rims are trimmed in burnt umber, as is the cup handle.

The demitasse set is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs. As antiques, they show minor signs of age including minor wear to the paint and slight scratching to the porcelain that is mentioned for accuracy. The cup stands 2.125" tall and measures 2.25" across the mouth and 3" from the back of the handle to the opposite side of the rim. The saucer is 5" from edge to edge and has a 2.75" foot rim. The undersides carry pink Minton globe backstamps and registration numbers reading "Rd No 566884". They also carry production information reading "PAT. DEC 20TH 1910". There is an impressed date mark present on the saucer indicating production in 1927. The cup also carries the partially legible name of defunct jeweler "The J.J. Freeman Co" with the store's location "TOLEDO OHIO." The set is hand-lettered with pattern code "B833" and other decorator marks. The cup and saucer have a combined weight of 6.5oz.

This hand enameled Minton bone china demitasse cup and saucer displays beautifully and would be a wonderful addition to other pieces in the B833 pattern or a wider grouping of fine English china cups and saucers by Minton and other makers. A very pretty find!
