DANCING GOAT
Cork Edge Malkin Staffordshire England c 1860
This is a gorgeous antique transferware toy childs saucer or shallow bowl, circa 1860, originally part of a complete miniature children's tea set. The bowl measures  5 inches across with a deep center well, transfer printed in a brilliant purple mulberry sometimes called flow blue or flow black. Decorated in the scarce GOAT pattern (also known as "Goat Girl"), depicting a girl dancing with her pet goat -- or
some see a pet dog -- with a manor house in the background with lush vegetation and a twisted loop border pattern.
The bowl is marked with the pattern name, a printed letter G and the initials of the maker Cork Edge & Malkin, a pottery manufactory in the Staffordshire region of England in the mid to late 19th century.
The bowl is in great
condition with no
chips cracks or repairs. Minor typical factory flaws original to the making. Children's transferware of this quality is quite scarce and highly sought after. Animal lovers and transferware collectors will adore the set. Sold as is, as shown, without a lid. We invite you to browse the rest of our auction listings this week.
