The match striker is by Doulton Lambeth, and is a glazed light tan brown, with 2 little white bees on the front! There is space in the middle to hold matches, and the hive acts as a rough striker around the outside. This is a very rare piece by Doulton, and the backstamp indicates that it was produced from 1891 onwards. The striker is in good condition with no chips or cracks, and the colour is good. There is some natural wear and a few teeny weeny flea bites, really just due to age. 6cm high, and has the Doulton Lambeth impressed backstamp on the base. Thank you very much for looking at this piece! Please contact me for details on who to make the cheque payable to and the address. Your item will be posted once the cheque has cleared. I use EVRI tracked courier service straight to your door – 3 to 5 day service. I try to be as honest as possible when listing items for sale, and highlight any points on condition. The majority of my items are vintage, and do have some wear due to their age and being previously used. I love vintage pieces, especially china and pottery, and like nothing more than finding new and interesting pieces!
