Flynn – 1920s Face Character Egg Cup

£52.00

Flynn is a fabulous porcelain egg cup, modelled as a child’s head, with rosy cheeked face, kiss curls and cheeky grin. It is most likely to be German, circa 1920s. Flynn means ‘son of the red haired one’ – we just took a guess that he might be!

Description

A couple of interesting facts about egg cups. The first known egg cups were discovered in the ruins at Pompeii around 79AD and  a ‘Pocillovist’ is the name for an egg cup collector (from the Latin ‘pocillum ovi’, meaning a small cup for an egg).

 

Pieces bought from L&N have had a previous life, therefore may show signs of wear consistent with use and age.
