Description
This 2 color (purple & blue) Staffordshire covered box includes 4 separate scenes from the Peruvian (Horse) Hunt Pattern by Anthony Shaw, c. 1850. All the views involve chasing wild (I presume) horses in a tropical setting. The box measures 5 ½” x 4 3/8” x 4” (high with the lid on). This could be a Parbutter tub or a soap box, although there is no little drainage insert. Excellent condition with no chips, cracks, lines, etc. The transfers are clear and the colors strong. A very unusual piece of transferware, and although the pattern is listed in several sources, the form is not. Great as a dresser box, or even to hold M & Ms!
