Minton Downing S-665 Bone China Turquoise Gold Fruit Bowl Vintage c1955
A refined Minton bone china fruit bowl made in England, featuring the Downing S-665 pattern. The plate has a softly scalloped edge accented with a fine gold rim and an elegant circular border of turquoise-blue stylized leaves alternating with delicate gray-blue foliage.
The restrained decoration and generous white ground give the piece a sophisticated mid-century appearance while retaining Minton's traditional English fine-china character. The turquoise accents are especially attractive against the bright white bone china, with the gilded edge adding a formal finishing touch.
The underside is clearly marked “S-665 DOWNING – MINTON – Founded 1793 – Bone China – Made in England,” along with additional decorator/production marks. An attractive replacement or addition to an existing Minton Downing service and equally suitable as a decorative collectible.
