Decorative and reusing something made over 100 years ago, how fun! Measures approximately 5" tall and 3" across widest point at top. The Homer Laughlin China Company began making toilet ware in the 1880s. Over a dozen different shapes were made until it was finally phased out in the late 1920s. Sets were made for the home as well as for use in hospitals and hotels. A standard set for the home was made up of: a chamber pot - usually a one handled bowl with a lid, a slop jar - larger than a chamber pot with handles on either side, a combinet - similar to a slop jar, but with a wire handle, a covered soap dish - often with a circular insert, shaving mug, brush jar, two sizes of ewers, and a basin. Here are the verified HLC toilet ware shapes with approximate dates of production: Victor, 1884, Etruscan, 1886, Denver, 1887, Lenox, 1890, Cable, 1890s, Nanita, 1893, Florentine, 1895, Arno, late 1890s, Superba, late 1890s - 1906, Catalina, late 1890s - very early 1900s, Mingo, 1902 - 1929, Wyoming (Majestic), 1902 - late 1910s, Bridal, 1902 - late 1910s, Duchess, 1905 - 1929 We have other antique jars, mugs in the store as well as many other antique Homer Laughlin pieces (plus super rare items).
