The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Sunderland lustreware is a style of 19th-century English pottery produced primarily in County Durham, characterised by its metallic pink or purple iridescent glaze created using gold chloride solutions.

These jugs were crafted from earthenware and fired with a clear lead glaze before receiving metallic overglaze washes, often combined with black transfer-printed engravings and hand-enamelled polychrome details.

Authentic period pieces feature characteristic uneven mottled or splash lustre patterning, period copperplate transfer prints with nautical or commemorative themes, and fine age-related glaze crazing on an earthenware body.

Display the piece as a standalone accent on a sideboard top, mantelpiece, or bookshelf to allow its metallic finish and historic imagery to contrast against neutral wall tones.

Wash gently by hand using lukewarm water and mild dish soap with a non-abrasive cloth, avoiding complete submersion and harsh chemical cleansers that can wear down delicate metallic overglazes.
