This beautiful 19th-century Staffordshire jug is a striking example of English ironstone pottery. Decorated in rich cobalt blue, the jug features a swirling floral transfer pattern in the classical style and a flamboyant, high-arched spout that gives it a sculptural silhouette.
The handle is organically shaped with a slight scroll and thumbrest, and the glazing pools luxuriously around the neck, adding dramatic contrast to the creamy white body. Stamped to the base with the Staffordshire crest and Ironstone Staffordshire England, dating this piece to the late 1800s.
Size:
Height: 11.25" / 28.5cm
Condition is very good for its age, with minor signs of wear to the foot rim and a few glaze skips near the spout as expected for period pieces.
A perfect display piece for a maximalist, English country, or blue-and-white decor scheme.
