A rare early 19th century Staffordshire frog and newt loving cup. It is an allover lovely blue and white foliate decoration and stands 4" tall, the diameter is also 4". It has a wonderful verse to the front which reads:
A friend that is social goodnatured & free To a pot of my liquer right welcome shall be But he that is proud & illnatured may pass By my door to an alehouse & pay for his glass.
There is a black and white spotted frog to the base and on both sides, and there is a simiarly decorated newt. It is in excellent condition.
These frog and newt loving cups don't come on the market often, and this is perfect for the frog mug collector as well as the collector of blue and white.
