1937 King George VI Coronation Mug with Gilt Lion Handle

A striking piece of British royal history, this commemorative mug was produced for the Coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth on May 12, 1937. Made in England, it features vibrant heraldic crests, crossed flags, and the royal monogram, all framed by rich gilt detailing.

The sculptural gilt lion handle adds dramatic presence, while the heavy porcelain body gives this piece a wonderful, substantial feel in hand. Designed as a souvenir of the coronation celebrations, pieces like this were proudly displayed in homes throughout Britain and across the Commonwealth.

An exceptional collector’s example that blends royal pageantry with classic English craftsmanship — equally at home in a coronation display, bar cabinet, or curio shelf.
