German Antique Porcelain Luster Spittoon Late 1800s Victorian

German Antique Porcelain Luster Spittoon 

The popularity of chewing tobacco in the late 1800s was reflected in the manufacture and sale of ceramic spittoons by local potteries.  Spittoons were containers for tobacco juice and wads.

And now they make great planters or catch-all jars!

In fantastically great condition - slight wear to gold around top. Beautiful gargoyles on both sides with roses design.

Measures: 8 1/2" wide x 7 1/2" deep x 4 3/4" tall 

Please see pictures as they are part of the description.
