Two Royal Doulton miniature Toby mugs - Porthos and Falstaff, 1940s
Two miniature jugs in the apocryphal ‘Toby’ form (strictly speaking, since they do not depict a seated figure but just the head and shoulders, they should be called ‘character jugs’) made by the Royal Doulton factory and with their mark. These come from a wide ranging set of figures produced during the 1940s and depicting figures from literature and history. We have ‘Porthos’, one of the three musketeers, and Falstaff, well known from Shakespeare and later Verdi’s opera. The lively modelling and colourful glazes have an instant appeal and attraction for a collector wanting to build up a small set.PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE IS FREE UK SHIPPING ON THIS ITEM.
