English Royal Doulton Old Salt Sculptural Ceramic Drinking Mug. A delightfully quirky piece, with a bearded seaman in cap and cableknit sweater making up the body of the cup, and a beautifully posing mermaid forming the handle. The word "Old Salt" is raised on the back of the mug, which has a uniquely tilted mouth due to the form of the cap. Marked and dated 1960 on the underside.
Size: 7 1/2 x 5 1/2 x 7 in.
Royal Doulton is an English ceramics and home accessories maker founded in 1815 at Vauxhall Walk, Lambeth, London, as Jones, Watts & Doulton, producing salt-glazed stoneware for domestic and pub use before becoming Doulton & Co. in 1854. Expanding to Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, in 1882, it began manufacturing bone china tableware and decorative wares, and in 1901 it adopted the name Royal Doulton when it received a royal warrant. Though a later entrant than firms such as Royal Crown Derby, Royal Worcester, Wedgwood, and Spode, it adapted successfully to 20th Century market changes, with related brands including Royal Albert and Mintons emerging through diversification and mergers. After later consolidation under WWRD Holdings and the demolition of its Burslem factory in 2014, the company was acquired in 2015 by Fiskars Corporation, and today produces tableware, figurines, cookware, glassware, and other home accessories.
