Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:12901
Original Description:
Exceptionally rare and wonderful, original ca1900 Hand Painted Occupational Shaving Mug for the Owner of a Louisville, Kentucky Hardware Store with a fantastic view of the actual storefront of said Hardware Store – “George Dehler Jr. & Co. Hardware”.
    This beautiful, Hand Painted, Porcelain Occupational Shaving Mug measures approx. 3 3/4" tall and 3 3/4” in diameter at the rim. The Mug features a central Image of the George Dehler & Co. Hardware Store ...in Louisville, Kentucky. This is NOT a generic image of a storefront but a depiction of the actual building that housed Dehler’s Hardware Store in Louisville. We have included below a much later photograph of that building and one can see the arch top windows on the second floor, the peaked windows on the third floor and the ornamentation above the third floor windows that appear identical to the windows in the decoration on the Mug. In the Image on the Mug there is a long, horizontal advertising sign above the windows of the first floor with tiny, gold gilt lettering that reads “Geo Dehler Jr. Hardware” as well as signs above the entrance that reads “Horse Nails” and “Brinly Plow”.
    Above the Image there appears the name of the original owner of both the Mug AND the Louisville Hardware Store - “Geo. Dehler Jr.”.
    The decoration on this Shaving Mug is beautiful and the colors are bright and vibrant. The Mug is made of a very high quality, brilliant white porcelain and carries the mark of “D & C” (Delinieres and Co.) Limoges, France.
    PLEASE NOTE: This Shaving Mug is unconditionally guaranteed to be an original ca1900 Hand Painted Barber Shop Shaving Mug and is NOT a reproduction, reissue or of modern manufacture but an original Mug manufactured and decorated around the turn of the 20th century!!
    This rare and very beautiful, American Sporting motif / Hunter Occupational Shaving Mug is in very good condition. The colors are bright and vibrant and the decoration well preserved and very attractive. There is wear to the gold gilt border at the foot and the rim of the Mug as well as a bit to the lettering of the original owner's name but otherwise the decoration is very well preserved. The ground porcelain is a brilliant white and there is no staining or discoloration. There are no chips, cracks, physical damage or repairs of any kind. Please see the scans below for a good indication of the form and condition of this wonderful Hunter motif Occupational Shaving Mug.

Important Notes about Shipping Charges: The amount quoted for Shipping & Handling is calculated by eBay and is equal to the EXACT amount charged by the Post Office plus a $1.00 "packing fee" - the $1.00 fee is our only compensation for the virgin packing materials we use on all of our professionally packaged boxes as well as our cost for the salaried help that does most of our packing - as I am sure you can see, we make NO profit on the Shipping charges and, in fact, our costs are usually greater than the $1.00 fee.
