CIRCA 1875 Modelled as an upturned scallop shell supported on the backs of a pair of mermaids 24 ? in. (62.4 cm.) high, 39 in. (99 cm.) wide
This design was chosen by Minton to represent their majolica at several important exhibitions in the late 19th century, including South Kensington (1871), Vienna (1873), Philadelphia (1876) and at the Imperial Institute in London in 1894. The model was more commonly produced as a smaller version, and was rarely produced in such a large size as the present example. Another of the same dimensions was sold at Christie's, New York, 28-29 March 2017, lot 453.
