Lot 332: A Collection of Hantel ‘Victorian Miniatures’ Hand-Painted Porcelain...
A Collection of Hantel ‘Victorian Miniatures’ Hand-Painted Porcelain Lidded Boxes and Figurative Pots, Made in Scotland, with Original Box.
A decorative collection of hand-painted porcelain lidded boxes and small pots by Hantel, from their ‘Victorian Miniatures’ series, presented with the original branded box marked “Made in Scotland.” The group includes a variety of rounded containers, each with fitted lids and individually styled finials.
The pieces are finished in soft pastel tones including pink, cream, green, and lavender, and are adorned with applied floral garlands, bows, and foliate motifs in relief. One example features a bird perched atop the lid, another a butterfly, while a further piece is surmounted by a small winged figure holding a tray, adding a whimsical and varied character to the set.
The surfaces display a gently textured, hand-painted finish with delicate detailing across each body and lid. The overall composition presents a cohesive yet varied group of ornamental miniature containers, enhanced by their sculptural lids and decorative accents.
Accompanied by the original green Hantel box, completing this charming and collectible ensemble.
