Pair of Massive Doulton of London Rms Shipping Stoneware Alcohol Jars

1920 - 1940
Description

Massive pair of royal doulton jars with lids which are stamped. Made during the second world war, bearing the date 17.03.41. We beleive these to have been made for the rms during the war to carry alcohol. They are each a four man lift empty, so full they would have had to have been winched into location. Stunning decorative items that could be adapted into a modern purpose or enjoyed as they are.

Small chips to lids with restorations, but rare to have the lids at all.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Large stoneware jars were standard commercial vessels used by distilleries, breweries, and shipping lines during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to store and transport spirits, vinegar, and other liquids securely.

These vessels were crafted from dense stoneware clay, thrown or moulded for durability, and finished with liquid dip glaze to render the ceramic non-reactive and watertight.

Authentic pieces typically feature impressed maker marks from Doulton Lambeth or Doulton London, along with stamped liquid capacities, inventory numbers, and functional features such as lower spigot apertures and hooded side handles.

These oversized industrial ceramics serve as floor-standing architectural accents in open-plan spaces, foyers, or flanking a hearth, adding historic texture to contemporary or rustic interiors.

Wipe the glazed exterior with a mild detergent and warm water, avoiding abrasive pads that could scratch the surface, and ensure the interior remains completely dry.
