1840s English Staffordshire Transferware Frog MugMid 19th century English frog mug in the classic pearlware tradition, decorated in black transfer with hand applied enamel highlights typical of the 1840s50s. The pastoral scene wraps the body with nave charm, framed by delicate border work and double handles that give the form both balance and presence. And then, of course, the surprise: a molded frog resting at the base, revealed only as the drink disappears. Originally intended as a bit of tavern

Mid-19th century English frog mug in the classic pearlware tradition, decorated in black transfer with hand-applied enamel highlights typical of the 1840s–50s. The pastoral scene wraps the body with naïve charm, framed by delicate border work and double handles that give the form both balance and presence.

And then, of course, the surprise: a molded frog resting at the base, revealed only as the drink disappears. Originally intended as a bit of tavern humor, these mugs have become enduring collector favorites for their whimsy and craftsmanship alike.

Large in scale at a full pint, and unmarked as expected for the period, it carries the honest wear and subtle crazing that confirm its age. Equal parts functional history and conversation piece — exactly the kind of object that feels at home in a thoughtfully layered interior.

So-so...
Color: Blue+Orange
50lb German Shep mix chewed through the head within a couple days and pulled the squeeker out. Not horrible, but not as durable as they seem to imply.

The indestructible sharkie
High and low have I searched when quite by accident I just happened upon the indestructible sharkie. We are fast approaching the 24 hour mark and sharkie is still with us. He has thus far resisted the incredibly strong, outrageously aggressive and persistent chewing of my Bernese mountain dog. Most don’t make it 20 min, so a whole day?!? Miracle!!! Not in love with the incessant squeaking that has followed me, but then again… that’s because this is actually not simply a review but a love story between a dog and his shark toy. Where others have failed, this one has endured. My water fearing dog has an obsession with shark shaped toys so while it would be nice to see a different character, truth is… I’ll be buying more sharkies. A lot of sharkies. Yard sharkie. Work sharkie. Maybe not house sharkie… but you get the point.

Great for tough chewers
I have purchased this twice! My dog absolutely loves it! He is a pit-bull Shepard mix and an extremely tough chewer. The first toy lasted almost a year of him chewing on it daily
