Early 1800s Red Spatterware Cup and Saucer Peafowl ENGLAND:
$61.95

Beautiful English red spatterware sipping cup and saucer likely dating to the 1830s, featuring a primitive multicolored image of a peafowl perched on a branch against a background of red sponge decoration on a white base. Cup measures approx 4\" diameter x 2.5\" tall, saucer is 5.25\" diameter x 1.25\" tall. Made in England. Cup bears a black hook-shaped mark underneath. Saucer is unmarked.

Both pieces are in very good vintage condition with no chips or cracks and no visible crazing or obvious signs of use or wear. The colors are vibrant abd the white is crisp. The saucer has a spot approx 3/8\" in diameter in the circular body of the peafowl where the glaze is missing or applied very thinly. This is thought to be a manufacturing defect rather than damage. See pictures for condition and details.

The color schemes of cup and saucer vary slightly, suggesting that perhaps these were not originally matched as a pair. Nonetheless, the two complement each other perfectly, and their amazing condition speaks to the care they have received over their lifetime. These would be a great addition to any collection or display.
