A wonderfully kitsch vintage wooden character egg cup, designed with an oversized head, enormous pointed ears and a colourful hand-painted outfit.

The egg sits inside the character’s hollow head, while the exaggerated facial features, white beard, striped shirt and bright yellow trousers give it a fantastic mid-century novelty appearance.

The underside is stamped Portmeirion.

A fun and unusual piece of vintage kitchenalia, perfect for collectors of novelty egg cups, kitsch homewares and quirky character pieces.

Shows age-related wear, marks, paint loss and some surface cracking consistent with age and use, as photographed.
