The Victoria & Albert Museum |
Here’s a mug that I don’t have. Now, I have to find one. This Queen Victoria Jubilee mug is crafted of cream-colored earthenware with brown transfer-printed bust-length portraits in medallions of Queen Victoria at the time of her accession and at the time of her Jubilee. These appear under a crown with a ribbon inscribed “1837 VRI 1887.” A laurel-wreath adorns the rim.
The mug was made in Lambeth by Royal Doulton and is marked "DOULTON BURSLEM” surrounding four interlaced D's within a shaped medallion on the bottom.
