Description

We have for sale a very attractive Dr Wall Period Worcester porcelain cabbage leaf mask jug, c1770 that could serve as a lovely and very historic decorative flower vase.

This very attractive white cabbage leaf moulded jug is beautifully decorated with polychrome enamels with a gilt rim over a gilt bordered pine tree and floral sprig border over scattered floral sprigs and three panels decorated with bouquets of flowers all finished with a rather strikingly decorated masks head spout. The jug carries no makers marks to the base but is typical of Worcester's output in the early 1770s.

The jug is large standing at just over 10 inches (22.5cm) high. The jug is in a very good to excellent condition other than a small hairline to the upper second supporting strut of the handle and the loss of a flake of gilt to the rim.
