Description

A superb example of an early 19thc brass ale / cider jug, which would have been used in the English country tavern....it is of "pot belly" form and has the early "castellated" rivet form of construction, always an indication of age and quality.... the shaped handle has been flattened out and then with copper rivets attached to the body of the jug....the jug is in excellent condition with no dents or splits and has gained a very good mellow colour to the brass....these collectable jugs are getting hard to find in such good condition as this one,... as a lot of examples have been dented or split by being dropped on the stone floors..!

English. C1800-20.

FAQs

Georgian brassware encompasses utilitarian and decorative metal objects produced during the reigns of Kings George I to IV (17141830), characterised by functional durability and evolving foundry techniques.

These vessels were typically cast in copper-zinc brass alloys using sand-casting or brazed sheet construction methods, often finished with hand-hammered details and soldered components.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit period-correct casting flaws, heavy patination, hand-finished surfaces, and construction traits consistent with pre-industrial manufacturing techniques.

Positioning the piece on a mantelpiece or bookshelf introduces warm metallic tones and historical texture that contrasts well with minimalist modern finishes.

Maintain the surface by dusting with a soft, dry cloth and avoiding harsh chemical polishes that strip away historical oxidisation and natural patina.
