From the hometown of the famous Scottish poet, Bobby Burns, Mauchline, Ayshire,  Scotland, the manufacture of Mauchline ware began in the early 1800s. The wood of choice was sycamore because of the fine grain and color.
The boxes were decorated with hand-painted images on wood, then scenes painted on paper glued to surface and varnished. In the 1880s, etchings and steel engravings were transferred on tops and sides of the items.  As the process and popularity grew, these were made for the tourist trade and found at the site of the transfers. The transfers represent not only sites in Great Britain but also France, Germany, Italy and the US.
Offered here are five examples
- a German barrel needle case showing "Mines Palace", the Imperial Palace of Goslar, located in Goslar, Germany.
- an egg-shaped thimble holder/sewing kit, German, C. 1890 showing the Fair Maiden's house in Perth, Scotland
-A transferware pincushion in the shape of a Boston baked bean pot showing St. Botolph's Church, in Boston. 
- a napkin ring from Scotland of the Old Orchard Beach Pier in Maine 
- a slender sailor's needle case, 6" long
