This is an interesting tiny child’s mug dating to the early 1800s. This form is known as a face mug and would have been. Made as novelty gift item for a child. I’ve seen other small face mugs but they have all been larger than this little fellow. Measuring only 1 ¾ high the mug is molded in the form of a man’s head. The rim is accented with Rockingham glaze. The mug is in its original condition no damage or repairs.
Offering this antique hard to find pair of child’s leather red shoes. Measures 6.5″ x 4.5″ T. This is a desirable red and black end color pair. They’re in good overall condition. They have a scuff on the side of one shoe consistent with age and wear and slight wrinkles on the toes. Great child size and colors.
The cradle was molded in two pieces and the halves pressed together, then the rockers added prior to firing. The outside of the cradle is attractively formed with Rockingham glaze decorating the top and sides. Measuring 4 ½” long by 3 ¼” in height this cradle is nicely molded and decorated. When found, these cradles usually have damage from having been played with by children. This is in near mint condition with only minor glaze loss on the top of the rockers with no other damage or repairs. Very few of these cradles have survived in any condition and are highly collectable.
These shoes are identical. A collector told me that these. Were made before right and left shoes. Were made in different patterns. These are the same pattern. (no left or right). These were worn by my grandfather. In Missouri in the late 1800’s. Constructed with tiny brass eyelets. With the original laces. 6.5″ long x 2″ wide x 7 tall. Unpolished – the leather has not been treated. Happy to answer your questions.
Rare Antique Early 19th Century Child’s Miniature Treen Knitting Sheath, Initialled’M. These sewing tools were found mainly in rural areas in Wales, Yorkshire, Cumbria, Scotland and Northumberland, the majority were made in wood; but other materials included leather, metal, bone, straw and quills. They were used by placing the end of the stick against the right hand hip, tucked into the waistband, or belt, at an angle, so a double ended knitting needle could be placed in the hole, at the opposite end, which was about 1 deep. This secured the knitting needle, and freed the right hand so the knitter could knit at speed, also whilst standing or walking. This charming example is rare in its miniature child size and is engraved with the child’s initials. Condition is good, commensurate with and use. Lovely patina to the wood!
