Title:
Rare Antique Mug
Description:
Presented for your consideration is this rare antique mug. Assumed to be a beer mug due to its size and weight, this mug has a light brown to white ombre coloration with a colorful and very detailed picture on the front. The picture shows a man in circa 17th century clothing holding a clock in his hands. The hands are pointing to midnight. A ribbon banner runs around the back of the man and inside of this banner reads "Happy New Year 1903." White enamel accenting is on the man's clothing. Just over the man's left shoulder is a banner with a bell inside of it. The mug is completed with a sturdy handle with a leaf embossed at the top of the handle and gold trim around the top edge.  Mug is finished with a smooth glaze. There are no markings to indicate a manufacturer. Guaranteed to be old and all original. This neat and hard to find mug would make a great addition to any mug collection!
A flea bite size surface chip is near the word "Happy." No significant chips. Free of cracks. Minimal wear. Overall in EXCELLENT condition. Please refer to the photos for the absolute best details.
Measures 5" from the edge to the back of the handle, 4 1/8" in diameter at the bottom and 5" tall.
