    Description

    DESCRIPTION AND CONDITION
    Up for sale is a match holder with a striker using with Mr Punch and his dog Toby on the lid. It measures about 3.75” tall when on the base, by about 3” by 1.5”.
    I think this is considered a fairing. Popular in Britain from the 1850s until the early 20th century. They are are small, brightly colored porcelain figural groups, mounted on rectangular bases. They were sold or given away as prizes at fairs, or sold as souvenirs at holiday resorts. The word ’fairing’ may be a shortening of "fair earning" for a task well performed, and the fairing itself the reward for a victory in fairground competitions.
    Overall a nice example with bright colors. There are two notable spots where the glaze is missing and it feels a bit rough. One is by shoulder of Punch and the other on the back on the corner of the seat that Toby is sat on. Some of the color is missing the Punchs’ hat, but it feels smooth. There is a notable flaw where you can make out the seem on the front between the head and body of Punch. There is other minor wear and flaws. Please review the photographs and email me if you have any questions or want additional photographs.
