I am pleased to offer an excellent vintage Portmeirion Corsets shaving mug produced in the 1960's. There is a different image of an early Corset advertisment on each side of the mug as shown in the photos below. One side features the 'Brown's Patent Dermathistic Corset' and the other the 'Piccadilly Swanbill Corset'.

It is in overall condition with common overall fine and very clean crazing. Please be sure to see the very detailed description below.


The Corsets pattern was made by Portmeirion in the early 1960's and discontinued by the early 1970's. Several shapes used Corsets images including plates, potties, and tall coffee pots.

NOTE: In the photo above, the 'C' in Corsets wording 'Full' below it is more pale compared to the actual item due to photo lighting.

Please see the photo below for a view of the bottom and ID mark.

Transfer	Both transfers are excellent with no missing or rubbed paint

Other Comments	A nice collectible vintage Portmeirion Corsets shaving mug!

The bottom is marked with a typical Portmeirion ID mark of the day. I believe the number on the left was assigned to the shaving mug blank shape.
