It was listed by Artisan Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Artisan Antiques has dated this piece to the Victorian era.
The body of the jug is embossed with floral and foliate chasing, with swags and engraved embellishments surrounding the decorations. The jug features an elegant and sleek handle and a widened foot that allows for the jug to stand up straight and hold contents steadily.
The central cartouche is not engraved, however, it shows slight signs of previous erasure around the edge - this, however, does not affect the usage and is very minor. The jug is leak-free and thus allows for liquids to be held within.
Though traditionally wine would be the common choice, in the modern-day it would make for an equally wonderful manner to hold and pour any beverages of your preference for a luxurious and indulging experience.
A full set of English hallmarks are marked on the underside of the spout.
