Feeding (and Feeling!) the Rabbit, 19th C. Staffordshire Transferware Child's Mug

Regular price $80.00

A sweet one for the Easter season I thought, and I especially like that imperfections to the transfer make "Feeding the Rabbit" looking very much like "Feeling the Rabbit," which itself could be read literally, and also as if one were filled with the spirit of the bunny. I really like the face on this girl, too, and those fabulous green willow-esque trees behind her. 

2 5/8" t x 2 3/4" d; 3 3/4" across at handle. C. 1830s. Some staining as evident but no notable chips or cracks and shows very nicely. Perfect filled with spring violets--or baby carrots!
