Mauchline Transfer Ware 3 Section Box Rustic Bridge Totland Bay Isle of Wight

Description

I have the honor and privilege of selling the collection of an avid and discerning collector of Mauchline Ware consisting of transfer, checker, Parian and tartan ware with a smattering of a few other finishes. I will be listing them in bite size batches over the next several months so that over time collectors can absorb the depth and breadth of the collection. This gentleman amassed an amazing collection of pieces, some of which I have never seen before and I have seen many collectors' collections over the years. This three compartment trinket or jewelry box has a wonderful transfer of Rustic Bridge, Totland Bay, Isle of Wight, which as far as I can determine is still in existence and is a tourist destination. The piece measures  7/8" tall, 4 3/16" long and is 3 3/8" deep. It is in overall excellent condition however, there is a half inch angled crack on the upper left hand corner that I believe was repaired, and almost look it is part of the grain of the wood, but please look at the pictures to see the overall condition. ALSO, PLEASE NOTE, IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS ITEM AND DO NOT WANT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE EBAY GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAM PLEASE MAKE ME AWARE OF THAT BEFORE BIDDING WHEN I AM STILL ABLE TO OPT OUT. White spots, if any, are camera glare.  Successful buyer is responsible for shipping and insurance and payment must be received within ten (10) business days of the close of the auction or the sale may be voided. Thanks for your interest and good luck!
