Antique order Canadian Exploration Commemorative Ironstone Pitcher Mikok Eskimo Girl 1893

This wonderful antique ironstone milk pitcher was created to sell to raise money for Dr. Frederick Cook's Canadian arctic exploration. He sold these at his lecture tour of 1893-94.

They came in two designs, one with an image of an Inuit boy and this one with Clara / Mikok, an Inuit girl with sled dog pups.

It stands 7" tall, 5" in diameter at the base, and 7" across--from order spout tip to handle edge.

It is in very good condition with no chips or cracks but it does have surface crazing (normal with this piece's age) and loss of some of the gold detail. See all pictures for you best idea of condition.
