1987 Schmid Beatrix Potter The Tale of Mrs. Rabbit 2 Handled Ceramic Cup. Measures 3" in height. Excellent condition. Comes with box. Box is in used condition.
Delight in the timeless charm of the Lake District with this 1987 two-handled nursery cup by Schmid. Part of a celebrated series of Beatrix Potter commemoratives, this piece features a heartwarming illustration of Mrs. Rabbit, the industrious and caring mother from the beloved Peter Rabbit stories. The two-handled design is a traditional "loving cup" style, historically crafted for small hands to hold securely, making it a quintessential piece of classic nursery-ware.
Crafted in high-quality ceramic, this cup serves as both a functional piece of childhood memorabilia and a beautiful decorative item for a collector’s shelf. The 1980s Schmid editions are particularly favored for their faithful reproduction of Potter’s original watercolor palette and fine linework. This cup is in excellent vintage condition, showing no signs of chips, cracks, or crazing. It comes complete with its original 1987 box, which, while showing the honest wear of decades in storage, has successfully protected the ceramic within. This piece is a thoughtful gift for a new parent, a nostalgic find for a Beatrix Potter enthusiast, or a sweet addition to a "Cottagecore" kitchen display. Its small scale and dual handles give it a unique, sculptural silhouette that stands out among standard mugs.
