Bennington Trigger Mugs
Tagged with: benningtondavid gilmug

Two classic “Trigger Mugs” from Bennington Pottery, in a sort of teal-gray glaze. The matte glaze color is somewhat different than in the photos, the color is much darker and less bright blue. I believe that these were David Gil’s designs. We see these mugs in various different colors including this green-blue color, white, beige, and sponged blue, pink and green.

Marked on the bottom with Bennington Potters 1340 and the spark / hand mark. Mugs are about 4″ tall and 3″ in diameter. The condition is pretty good on these, with usual pop glazes and imperfections typical of the company. Two condition issues – one mug has a pop glaze on the handle (shown in 2nd photo) and what looks like a small flake off the foot (shown in 4th photo). The other mug has what looks like a small hairline on the rim (shown in 3rd photo). However, it seems to be under the glaze, or it’s a very tight hairline since there is no indentation at all on the glaze.
