Vintage Beswick Mr. Pecksniff Toby Mug. Ceramic. Stands 3 1/2" in height. Excellent condition.
Add a classic piece of English literature to your shelf with this vintage miniature Toby mug from Beswick. This character jug depicts Mr. Pecksniff, the notoriously hypocritical architect from Charles Dickens' 1844 novel Martin Chuzzlewit. Beswick, a renowned English pottery established in 1894, is highly regarded for its detailed character studies and high-quality ceramic craftsmanship.
Standing 3 1/2 inches tall, this miniature jug features the signature Beswick high-gloss finish and vibrant, hand-painted facial features. Unlike larger Toby mugs, these miniature versions were popular as cabinet collectibles and desk accents.
This item is vintage, over 50 years old. While it appears to be in excellent condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
