A great looking set of 4 Ridgways stoneware beer tankard mugs in the Coaching Days and Coaching Ways series, finished in a rich amber brown treacle glaze with crisp black transfer scenes. They have that proper old inn feel and make a brilliant display on open shelves, in a glazed dresser, or brought out when you want mugs with a bit more presence.

A lovely educational detail for collectors: Ridgways took these scenes from the 1888 book Coaching Days and Coaching Ways by W Outram Tristram, illustrated by Hugh Thomson and Herbert Railton, and many pieces note they were used by special permission of Macmillan and Co Ltd, the original publisher.

Each measures 10 cm high and 10 cm across to the handle. Sold as a set of 4. As antique and early 20th century stoneware, expect gentle signs of use such as light surface wear that suits the character of the set.
