Deep Purple Victorian Porcelain Mug or Stein with Hand Painted Plums
Shipping/Handling: To Be Determined
Insurance: $1.75 USD
Price for shipping to USA
A tall unmarked Victorian porcelain beer mug or stein with a dramatic hand painted plums decoration. The color below the fruit is what I'd call an indigo or cobalt purple, very deep and dark. It's hard to see with the heavy, dark glaze, but the mug blank has in-mold feather filigree designs at the base and handle, and there's a subtle paneled effect below the rim. About 6-1/4" high by 4-3/8" diameter at the bottom swell, 3" diameter at the rim.
There is some light all-over crazing, which is only visible on the unpainted and very light colored areas, and then only upon very close examination. Other than a pinprick size glaze skip or flake to the front center of the design opposite the handle, there is no damage or wear to the mug or the painted design.
