BOOTHS - Coloured Ming

Hand-coloured versions of the MING pattern were produced in several different designs - they are some of Booths most exotic and collectable lines.

 

Soup plates
10 ins
With gold trim

Impressed 1920

£25 each
£45 pair

This design is identical to Booths blue and white Ming tableware shown elsewhere on this site. Hand -coloured items are extremely scarce.

 

 

 

 

 
 

 
     

 

The more usual COLOURED MING pattern is completely different from the blue and white version, and is one of the hardest to find and most sought after Booths patterns.

Plates and cups feature a more detailed central landscape with tiny boats and figures, quite different to the border design shown above. To view these, click here.

Vases and items like the tobacco jar below usually show a group of oriental figures in the foreground, against a watery landscape with stylised trees and foliage.
