Minton milk pitcher

Description

I am trying to get a picture. The Minton Milk Pitcher is 6 1/2 inches tall and 6 inches wide at the base. It is the Minton "Grape Cluster" pattern. The overall pitcher has the purple hue. The year cypher on the base looks like the cypher for 1881.  There is a small crack running through it. It's a beautiful piece of porcelain, with a couple of cracks., but no knicks. My great grandmother purchased the pitcher in Scotland, and brought it with her when she came to the States.
