This is an exquisite example of early 19th century English drinking ware. A 6.5 inch tall pitcher featuring Old Toby Fillpot, adapted from a mezzotint published in the 1760s. Base is 3.75 inches diameter and the top is 5 inches from handle to spout. Wonderful applied relief decoration of men and women enjoying leisure activities, including a wonderful hunting scene of 5 dogs and a mounted hunter chasing downa antlered deer. This salt-glazed stoneware pitcher resembles greatly the productions of Fulham and Doulton Lambeth of that period. Alas, it is not marked on the base, so I cannot say for sure which pottery made this jug. One clue is the decorative applied leaf at the base of the handle. Condition is MINT. No damage. No cracks, no chips, no rough spots. We see on the side of the handle a manufacturers flaw, but that is glazed and smooth. I took lots of photos, so please look carefully and ask questions! STONEWARE, BROWN SALT GLAZED, ENGLISH Category: STONEWARE Production Origin: ENGLAND Vessels are dipped in brown slip, then salt glazed to produce a mottled, pebbly brown "orange-peel" surface. Interiors are usually unglazed. Although usually undecorated, vessels can have impressed incised, or sprig-molded designs indicating royal initials, capacity standards, or tavern symbols and owners. Vessel Forms: CROCK JUG MUG Comments: English Brown Salt-glazed Stoneware is most commonly found in drinking vessel and serving forms. Its production is associated with Fulham, however since several other English production centers were also active it is often referred to as "Fulham-type" ware. It largely replaced Rhenish brown stoneware in England after 1700.
