Description
This refined assembly features a Minton “Cockatrice” creamer with its iconic globe mark and a Z.S. & Co. Bavaria floral sugar bowl, a gilded footed compote, a hand-painted twin-handle vase, and four miniature cups and saucers, including blue-and-white and lusterware examples. These pieces showcase late 19th-century European craftsmanship. Condition is fair to good, showing gilt wear, surface scuffing on the compote, and small chips on the creamer’s base. Large chip on sugar bowl. Various sizes from : H 5.25″, W 8.75″, D8.75; down to 2.5” x 4” Based on the high-resolution photos of the underside marks, here is a more precise breakdown of the origins:
• Minton (Creamer): The pink globe mark with “MINTONS” across the center was used starting in 1863. The presence of the word “England” (partially visible) suggests a production date after 1891.
• Z.S. & Co. (Sugar Bowl): This mark belongs to Zeh, Scherzer & Co. of Rehau, Bavaria, Germany. This specific green mark was primarily used between 1880 and 1918.
• PV (Saucer): The “PV” in a circle often denotes Paroutaud Frères of Limoges, France, typically dating to the early 20th century. 13pcs including 1 lid
