A collection of Aynsley Little Sweetheart pattern fine bone china items, decorated with polychrome transfer-printed floral sprigs including roses and daisies, interspersed with blue and brown butterflies. The group includes a mantel clock with a circular dial and gold-tone bezel, a large trumpet vase, a bulbous-bodied bottle vase, two smaller assorted vases, a circular lidded trinket box, an oval lidded trinket box, a small pin dish, and a tapered beaker. Several pieces bear a green printed mark on the base featuring a crown symbol with the words Aynsley, England, and Est. 1775 arranged in a circle, with the pattern name Little Sweetheart printed below. Included in the lot is a set of six Cristal d’Arques Longchamp pattern champagne flutes. These are crafted from 24% lead crystal (PbO) and feature a diamond-cut pattern to the lower half of the bowl with a faceted stem. The flutes are housed in their original blue presentation box, which indicates they were manufactured in France. Additionally, the lot contains an oversized brushed stainless steel hip flask of rectangular form with a captive screw-top lid.
