Description: Antique Victorian Staffordshire Porcelain Fairing Couple Playing Game Trinket Box Wonderful little fairings, usually made into trinket boxes, have been called many things over the years: trinket boxes, patch boxes, pin boxes, fairings, Victorian boxes, and Staffordshire boxes. This is the larger version of them. They originated during the Victorian era (1837-1901) from England, Austria, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany and France. The majority of them were made during Queen Elizabeth's reign and that is why most are called, "Victorian Trinket Box" and "fairings." They were used as prizes at the village fairs, given to sweethearts, sold as souvenirs, and given to children for birthdays or Christmas. This fairing box appears to be a Victorian couple sitting at a table with a game board between them; it is an exquisite relic of the past, perfect for collectors or those with an appreciation for vintage charm. • Antique Victorian-era piece • Crafted from Staffordshire porcelain • Features traditional fairing design • Measures 3 1/4" X 1 3/4" X 3 3/4" • Most fairing boxes were actually made in Boehme, Germany Item has wear to paint along with some imperfections to porcelain and paint.
