Seller: lambandflag ✉️ (2,016) 100%, Location: Worcester, GB, Ships to: GB, Item: 153384475214 Antique Victorian Wooden Small Lidded Box Post Boy Mauchline Ware. This has been in our attic for years and I have absolutely no idea of its history. I have been informed this is Mauchline ware. Almost certainly Victorian judging by the "Ashworth's" cotton label, although there is the possibility that this was stuck in later and the box is earlier. Ashworth was known for his lobbying against the corn laws with Robert Peel and was a famous cotton entrepreneur near Bolton in the North of England.  A lovely portrait of what appears to be a messenger or mail boy. There is some degradation to the surface which I have tried to illustrate in the photos, but it seems fairly stable on close inspection. Thanks for looking.
  • Condition: Some deterioration to the lacquer/paint-please see photos.Lid fits well.
