Description

A lovely Worcester porcelain barrel shaped cream jug with sections of horizontal ribbing around the foot and rim. Printed with the "Early Peony Print", c.1758-1760, crescent mark to base.

Reference: Worcester Blue & White Porcelain, Branyan, French & Sandon, section II.C.4, described as "very rare". Careful observation of the markings and kiln dust spots it appears this jug is the actual one illustrated. We have not come across another documented example.

It measures 6.5cm (2 5/8") high, 8.5cm (3 3/8") spout to handle and 6cm (2 3/8") wide. 

Condition is excellent; there is a small area of good restoration to the very tip of the spout but no other damage or repair. There is a small indent to the handle, caused during manufacture. A few kiln dust spots in the ribbing but not many. Handling wear is minimal.

Early Worcester porcelain refers to ceramic items made at the Worcester factory, founded in 1751 by Dr John Wall, known for its fine paste and hand-painted underglaze blue designs.

These pieces were typically crafted using a soapstone-infused soft-paste porcelain body, shaped by hand-throwing or casting, and decorated with cobalt blue pigments beneath a transparent glaze.

Authentication involves examining the paste under magnification for kiln grit, studying the underglaze cobalt painting style for period-correct brushwork, and checking for early crescent or workman marks.

Antique ceramics add historic texture and subtle colour when displayed within glass cabinets, styled on open shelving, or used functionally as small floral vases in modern rooms.

Preservation requires gentle hand washing in lukewarm water with mild detergent, avoiding abrasive materials, and keeping items away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations.
