Circa 1890. Very fine pair of antique European figural sweet meat dishes. This exquisite small pair of porcelain sweet meat dishes each feature a young women sitting in the middle of two small baskets. She is wearing a hat with turned up brim and floral decoration. She is clad in a charming dress with laced bodice and ruffled sleeves. Her shoes are a bright orange and she is holding a flower in one hand. The baskets are decorated with small sprays of flowers on white porcelain with gold trim. I believe the flowers on the basket are "transfer" and the rest of the decoration hand painting. The bases are marked in blue with what looks like a Y with a diagonal line through it. I do not know this mark but believe it is either 19th century French or German. Both dishes are in exceptional original condition. Fresh from a local Brooklyn, New York estate. 5" wide x 5" tall x 2 1/2" deep. Price $375.00 for the pair.
