1 in stock
Offering this wonderful and rare large rectangular lidded Tooth Paste with well fitted base.
The wording on the lid reads:
“Cherry Tooth Paste – An Agreeable & Elegant Preparation – Trade ‘Boval’ Mark – For Cleansing & Preserving the Teeth & Gums.”
Cherry Tooth Paste, marketed under the “Boval” trade mark, was a dental hygiene product produced in the late 19th to early 20th century, a period when tooth powders and pastes were becoming increasingly popular as personal hygiene standards improved. During this era, dental care products often emphasized pleasant flavor and elegance, reflecting Victorian marketing language that appealed to refinement and personal grooming. Cherry flavoring was used to make early toothpaste formulas more palatable, as many dental preparations of the time had strong medicinal tastes.
This attractive ironstone container is in good condition with age related crazing throughout and one chip on the bottom left corner of the lid as shown. Please consider the images as the best part of my description.
Measures approximately 3 ¼” long x 2” wide x 1 ¼” tall
This is an authentic antique advertising pot sourced during my recent buying trip to England. I have been sourcing these wonderful antique pots for over 12 years from friends who are actually digging them up in ancient rubbish sites all over England. I purchased my first antique Advertising pot when my husband and I had the wonderful opportunity to live in England in the 1980’s. Our daughter was born there and we enjoyed living in England so much we often went back to visit after returning to the US.
Interestingly, this same daughter’s husbands job moved them to London were we have enjoyed visiting our grandchildren and antiquing.
On our many visits we have became friends with many of the “diggers” excavating the ancient dumpsites all over the UK and now source thousands of pots from them every year. I still love the charm they add to every room they are placed in.
Please study all images as they are the best representation of the actual item you will receive. These are scarce and getting harder and harder to source.
Returns are not accepted on these rare authentic pieces but please contact if you have any questions.
