[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 281815, member: 85"]I don't think this is classified as a scuttle. Rather a shaving mug. I could be wrong, but I have always thought a scuttle had a spot on the side to hold the brush. I also do not believe that ladies in the 1900s shaved their legs. No reason to, as the skirts were long. I think this is simply a shaving mug. Many shaving mugs had floral designs. Good chance it is German in origin which would explain the pink.
