The Mug stands on a stepped circular spreading foot which is decorated with beading. The baluster shaped body is of a very good gauge and the leaf capped scroll handle is also decorated with a beaded band. The Mug is in excellent condition and is very well marked in the foot. Beaded Mugs are extremely rare and this is only one of a handful we have seen over the years.
