Lovely RARE Antique Porcelain Souvenier Cup
Image On Front Is Of Waters, Rocks, Trees, and A Rowboat With People In It
Beautifully Tinted And Colored
Says Across Top In Antique Font 'A Present From Killarney' And Under Image Says 'At The Meeting Of The Waters Killarney'
Gold Trim Around Rim and Down Handle
Very Fine Porcelain Is Translucent
Marked On Bottom SCHUMANN BAVARIA With Crest And Lion and the word FOREIGN, Meaning It Was Made For Tourist Trade In Ireland
Made Approx. 1940
Size Approx. 3"Tall x 3"Across Opening
Very Good Condition
This cup must have been very carefully stored because it has NO damage other than one MINISCULE tiny fleabite hit to the glaze [does not go into the porcelain] on the rim just below gold top line. Almost literally impossible to see but I do point these things out. Besides this, NO chips, nicks, scratches, cracks, or repairs. No crazing to glaze and is sparkling clean inside and out. Image is beautifully colored, glaze is shiny. Gold trim is not faded or worn.
A great looking mug for a collector, or someone that just wants a little luck o' the Irish!
Please check my other listings for 2 other OLD Irish Souvenier cups, both the same image of a fly fisherman from around 1950, made by Carrigaline Pottery Cork Ireland. One mug says Killarney and the other mug says Dublin. They have gold trim and shamrocks on them also.

Please note the following, dear fellow shopping enthusiasts:
I strive to give you the best service possible. I am not a dealer or professional, just a lifelong collector and enthusiast. I only list items that I think are unique and of good quality. I represent my items as accurately and clearly as I can, and believe it is always better for you to have too much information than not enough! Please ask any questions before bidding, I will happily respond.
Remember, these are vintage items and will have reasonable signs of age and wear which only adds to their personality, appeal and "funky vintage-ness". They are not in their original boxes unless noted. I do not excessively clean items or remove age patina, as I want to leave that option for the buyer.
I will promptly ship your item within 1 business day and post great positive feedback for you once payment is received.
Go Green! I try to re-use clean, almost-new shipping boxes when possible.
