Mauchline Transfer Ware Mini Double Butlers Knife Tray for Storing Sewing Items

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 miniature version of a butler's tray has two transfers; one scene is of Southend Pier and the other is of Cliff Town Southend. The piece measures 1.75" tall, 5.0" wide and is 2.5" deep. It is in overall good to excellent condition. There are a few tiny dings a result of use and age, and the inside has splotchy marks. The black Moroccan leather is mostly intact.  But please look at the pictures to determine 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!
