Staffordshire Faceted Jug with Oriental Scene, Late Georgian Period

18th century
For Sale by Ritas Bazaar
Description

This English Staffordshire jug dates from the late 18th century and is formed with sharply defined hexagonal facets, a characteristic shape of the late Georgian period. The thin glaze and overall finish are consistent with quality English ceramics of the time.

The decoration is entirely hand-painted, featuring an oriental genre scene with turbaned figures set in an imagined Eastern setting, complemented by delicate floral sprays in the “Indische Blumen” palette. Such decoration reflects contemporary English interest in exotic subjects and precedes the dominance of printed wares.

The underside shows an incised technological mark, a normal feature of period production. Examples combining this form and fully hand-painted decoration are now increasingly scarce.

Dimensions: height 21.5 cm; width 21 cm; depth 16 cm.

Weight: 656 g.

Condition: a small chip to the spout, a chip to the footrim, and a fine hairline crack at the base of the handle. In all other respects, in very good antique condition, with the painted decoration particularly well preserved.

Please study the accompanying photographs carefully as they form an integral part of this description. If you have any questions, we will be happy to answer them. The item will be shipped with full tracking and insurance. It is important to note that shipping costs include labour, packaging and postage.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Late Georgian Staffordshire pottery refers to ceramic wares produced in Staffordshire, England, between approximately 1790 and 1837. This period is characterised by advancements in earthenware bodies, transfer printing techniques, moulded faceted shapes, and hand-applied enamel decoration depicting Chinoiserie or pastoral motifs.

These vessels were typically crafted from pearlware or refined white earthenware shaped using press-moulds to form octagonal or multi-faceted panels. The decoration combined monochrome transfer-printed outlines with hand-painted overglaze enamel colours and lustred or gilded rims.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit characteristic micro-crazing in the glaze, moderate weight consistent with early earthenware bodies, and hand-finished details such as slightly uneven enamel application or visible mould seam lines inside the vessel.

A decorative ceramic jug can be displayed as a standalone accent piece on a dining room sideboard, integrated into a dresser display among contemporary glassware, or used on a mantlepiece to add textural and historical interest.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft brush or cloth. If washing is necessary, use lukewarm water with mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals, abrasive sponges, or immersion, as moisture can enter existing glaze cracks and cause discolouration.
